            Bug ID: 446846
           Summary: [PROPOSAL] Icons should only use colors that are
                    defined in the color scheme
           Product: Breeze
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Other
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Icons
          Assignee: visual-des...@kde.org
          Reporter: i6ic...@mailezee.com
                CC: kain...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

After bug 395569 and
https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/breeze-icons/-/merge_requests/192 the next,
definitely ambitious, move would be to have all the icons colors depend on the
current color scheme used by the user. I'm not even sure if this is actually
possible, or better, if it would look good, with the currents icons.
For sure we would need to expand the colors schemes to not only include colors
that have a role, but also colors that will be used in place of similar shade
of that color. For example a color scheme would need to define a color "Red"
that will be used everytime an icon (or an application) needs the color red
(right know someone could define the accent color, or ForegroundNegative, but
nothing can, correctly, prevent them to be defined as a shade of yellow for
example).
A good question that I can't answer is which colors would be needed to be
defined. A good start I think may be the seven rainbow colors plus black, gray
and white. Others may be needed too. Note also that breeze already has at least
those colors defined already https://develop.kde.org/hig/style/color/default/

Finally note that this would also help the creators of custom icons pack that
don't have to care anymore about support various color schemes.
