MX Linux Forum

the icon search function did change. I buzzed adrian.

Can you please check if new build fixes the problem?

It should return the "fromTheme" icon.

If this doesn't work well I can revert to whatever code was before in that "findIcon" function. Won't have time today, probably tomorrow.

Funny this icon issue pops up again and we are still in MX19.. I just checked my XFCE settings panel and sure enough, most of my THEMED icons are gone! Well here we go again! Lol! Thankyou @Adrian for posting the link to a possible fix. I am going to try this NOW, and report back.

keep in mind we are talking about the custom-toolbox app being used for a Settings Manager for Fluxbox. nothing here has anything to do with the xfce settings manager.

@dolphin_oracle I know my good sir! I was just checking things for theme consistency in my current session. The xfce settings panel was the quickest place I went to to check things. In Fluxbox my icons are all over the place! Again, gonna try out the custom toolbox and report back.

reporting back! Huh?! What do ya know? All icons so far in the settings manager have my theme now! I do not know if it worked or if the fix was installed within updates to MX but seems my look IS consistent outside of XFCE even! Nice guys!!

Did you try the build from the link? I want to understand if my fix worked or it's something else you are reporting...

It works perfect now! Thank you!




I've got another question. When I added some another useful tool- or scripts- icons to your toolbox, like Adblock, Gnome Font Manager, rofi-theme-selector, they all open with a terminal window behind. Is there a way to fix it? There's no such a thing, if they are launched from Thunar or an YAD-iconbox window.

Hi,

As a side note for future consideration.. XFCE4 4.16 which is in Debian Bullseye and therefore will most likely be in MX-21 now has it's own icons for the XFCE4 components which will override the icons in most icons themes (at this time Papirus is an exception and works). Anyway for some icon themes any XFCE4 functions called from the Fluxbox settings manager will likely force the XFCE4 native icons..

Excellent work by all! I had forgotten @Adrian's handy toolbox utility and the recent improvements make it much better for this type of application and also maintains the 'MX' utility look throughout..

I think that's because when you select a program/script that doesn't have a .desktop file I don't know how to launch it and I launch it in a terminal (some programs might not have GUI) I don't know how to check if the app has GUI or not...
