HighContrast: use symbolic Adwaita icons
Last modified: 2014-10-06 11:10:24 UTC
This is really easy: * { -gtk-icon-style: symbolic; } We just need to make sure it works everywhere, and the symbolic icons in adwaita don't have gaps in their coverage. See the bug this blocks on.

Patch to drop custom HC and use Adwaita for symbolic icons http://jimmac.musichall.cz/stuff/0001-HC-use-symbolic-icons-for-HC.patch
How is GTK2 going to work in HighContrast without the icons?
Other than the concern above, the patches look good to me - there's probably even more cruft we could remove but that can be done in a later commit.
(In reply to comment #3) > How is GTK2 going to work in HighContrast without the icons? That's a good question. Meaning I don't have an answer :(
we can make gtk3 use the symbolic icons, regardless of what gtk2 does, as long as we still install the HighContrast icontheme, right ?
Ah, I guess the shared gtk-icon-theme setting becomes an issue, here
I guess we could put gtk-icon-theme=HighContrast into the gtk2 HighContrast gtkrc. Or alternatively, put gtk-icon-theme=Adwaita in the gtk3 HighContrast settings.ini, but I'd rather keep the ugly hack in gtk2 land.
