Description Thomas Zajic 2007-03-17 02:31:40 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
The PNGs in $(prefix)/share/icons/gnome/48x48/emblems are not 48x48, but 32x32. In combination with Nautilus bug #321819, this leads to really ugly huge emblems for symlinks, for example.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start Nautilus.
2. Open a folder containing symlinks.
3. Witness the sheer ugliness of huge emblems jumping out at you.


Actual results:
Huge symlink emblems jumping out at you.

Expected results:
Properly sized symlink emblems perfectly blending in with the rest of the beautiful GNOME desktop.

Does this happen every time?
Yes, unfortunately.

Other information:
See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=321819 for details.

They are actually 36x36 I believe. The problem is that nautilus requests the wrong icon size for emblems. It expects emblems for the 48px size to be in the 48px directory in the theme, rather than requesting the 24x24 size icon. This means that in the latest versions of the GNOME or Tango icon themes, that the 48x48 icons get used for some emblems, resulting in overly large icons. This is howerver, a duplicate of the nautilus bug.

Afaik. this is no duplicate at all.

Wrong icon sizes in the wrong directories is a clear bug to me in gnome-icon-theme. (Simple fix; mogrify -resize 48x48 <datadir>/icons/gnome/48x48/emblems/*.png)

The nautilus bug is a side effect, at most, this bug here is dependent on the nautilus one to be fixed.
Comment 3 Jakub Steiner 2007-06-12 10:51:08 UTC 
Icons smaller than 48x48 need to be pixel perfect. Suggesting to scale them is utterly inappropriate.
Comment 4 Thomas Zajic 2008-07-08 16:42:35 UTC 
Reopening, updated versions - the Nautilus part (bug# 321819) has been fixed, but something still does not look quite right as of 2.22 (see comments 37 and 38 of bug# 321819).
Comment 5 Rodney Dawes 2008-07-08 16:51:56 UTC 
This is no longer an issue. The 48x48/emblems directory has been removed along with the icons in it, for 2.23.
