Description

With “task list” I mean either window-picker-applet, or the good old “Window List”. It’s enough to fix this for the application we currently have launcher for.

#1 Updated by alant 2014-06-05 03:08:50

pidgin : use of /usr/share/icons/hicolor//pidgin.png is hardcoded so the theme is not applied. We should install icons there.

#2 Updated by alant 2014-06-05 03:31:56

claws : icon is bundeled into the binary (see src/stock_pixmap.c in claws-mail source) but there seems to be support of theming.

iceweasel : icon seems to be a link in /usr/share/pixmaps/iceweasel.png. Changing this link actually changes the icon in task list.

#3 Updated by alant 2014-06-05 05:33:28

claws: creating a minimal theme containing only claws_mail_icon.xmp and .claws_themeinfo and setting pixmap_theme_path in the [Common] section of .claws-mail/clawsrc works to change system tray icon.

#4 Updated by alant 2014-06-05 06:22:07

claws: the following script works to change the theme but if one has persistence enabled, this change will be made persistent. However, without the theme installed, this has no effect.

CONFSECTION="\[Common\]"
CONFLABEL="pixmap_theme_path"
CONFVALUE="/home/amnesia/.claws-mail/themes/Windows8"

if grep "$CONFLABEL" "$HOME/.claws-mail/clawsrc"; then
    sed -e "s;$CONFLABEL=.*$;$CONFLABEL=$CONFVALUE;" -i "$HOME/.claws-mail/clawsrc"
else
    sed -e "/$CONFSECTION/ a $CONFLABEL=$CONFVALUE" -i "$HOME/.claws-mail/clawsrc"
fi
