Help for MX Fluxbox
When asking for help, use Quick System Info from MX Tools. It will be properly formatted using the following steps.
1. Click on Quick System Info in MX Tools
2. Right click in your post and paste.
* Preserve order from list when adding buttons
* Add "alias" option to change displayed name of program, just add "alias new name" after a name (but after "root" specifier if you need that)
* Don't ask for root access if .list file is editable by user
* Faster and probably more complete icon search
* Save config file under ~/.config/MX-Linux (each custom toolbox has its own config file that looks like with "custom-toolbox_name.conf"
It works great now, but there's a little problem with an icon set consistency. In the previous version I've got the same icons I've set in lxappearance - "Obsidian-Mint". Now the icons look a little bit strange, like every icon came from a different set.

Maybe b/c some of the icons are hard-coded to MX creations?
No, MX items all have their usual icons. Some of the non-MX applications are not following the user-set icon theme anymore, e.g: print settings, pavucontrol, lxrandr are now awarded a symbolic icon...t
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.
Icons show up correctly when setting user theme to Papirus or Adwaita. But with some other themes (like Tango or Tela - and obviously Obsidian) the icons are inconsistent.
Would it be possible to set an 'override-icon-theme' in /etc/custom-toolbox/ conf file?
I use qt5ct and fusion instead of standard gtk2 theme for qt applications, because it was the only way for me to have a full consistency between the fluxbox- gtk- and qt-theme. After changing the icon set in qt5ct from Obsidian to Papirus the Settings Manager looks much better.
In the application from MX repos the problem does not exist I can use Obsidian or any other icon set without any problems. But the newer "fixed" version from the link looks good only with the Papirus icon set, otherwise icons are inconsistent.
I mean custom-toolbox application. When I experimented with the one from MX repos to create my version of MXFB-settings manager, it worked fine with Obsidian icons. When I upgraded the custom-toolbox application to the new "fixed" one from Adrian's link, almost all Obsidian icons were replaced by Adwaita and only after changing the qt icon-set to Papirus the manager looks consistent.
