GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 612887
Tomboy uses the same icon for the panel and the menu
Last modified: 2010-05-21 05:20:52 UTC
Tomboy uses the same icon [icon name: "tomboy" ] for the panel and the menu. In order to create an icon theme that can customize the panel icon without modifying the Tomboy Application icon it it will need to use a separate icon name for the panel (Preferably an icon named "tomboy-panel"). This bug was originally reported by user Mike Basinger in Ubuntu's bug tracker. Link: https://bugs.launchpad.net/tomboy/+bug/531533 I'm willing to fix this and submit a patch. I would like to know if the Gnome Project will be willing to accept such a patch. Thanks.
Created attachment 156132 [details] [review] Allows icon themes to customize the Tomboy panel icon I've created a patch against Tomboy/Tray.cs that first attempts to load the "tomboy-panel" icon. If that icon does not exist then it attempts to load to original "tomboy" icon. This will allow icon themes to customize the panel icon used for Tomboy.
This looks good. Today is hard code freeze so I will either push it today or it will get delayed to next cycle. Thanks for the patch!
I pushed a patch based on yours to master; this will be in 1.2.0.
This was only partially fixed in Applet.cs, there are two locations in that file which load the icon. I have attached a patch at bug 614795 regarding this.
