Hi guys, I have "tangofied" main icons in icons.svg but I have following problem. How do I change icons for File>Open, File>Save, File>Print, Undo, Redo, Clipboard manipulation? I didn't found them in the icons.svg and on winxp these icons are default ugly gnome icons :( Any suggestions? Also how do I change cursor images?
You can't modify those icons and this is a good thing. They are taken from the GTK theme and the idea is to have them consistent across the entire desktop (bonus if you have a full GTK/GNOME desktop). Inkscape should use the Wimp GTK theme on Windows and those icons should fit the Windows look and feel as much as possible. You may want to contribute some better icons to Wimp: http://gtk-wimp.sourceforge.net/ http://gtk-wimp.sourceforge.net/screenshots/gfx/inkscape-winxp.png
I thought that. But the problem is as I stated, the icons are not default windows on a windows machine. they are default gnome, which is on a win desktop a bit confusing. just look at the attached file. I think a perfect thing would be that if an icon is specified in icons.svg file, inkscape will use that icon, and if it isn't specified then use the default wimp theme icon. what about that? The other thing is, many apps in windows have their custom icons, even the default ones. And when Inkscape will use the tango theme, why not use the tango icons also for the default ones. I think its less confusing when one app has one icon theme than other rather than one app has two icon themes ;) and to solve the problem with unification across platforms, simply ship the win version of inkscape with the modified icons.svg.
