Public bug reported: Icons are not displayed be default in either context menus, dialogue buttons or firefox bookmarks menu
Upstream is setting these two options to false by default. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=557469 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=583352 To ensure that *essential* icons are displayed, relevant applications are to be patched. Design Suggestion: Meanwhile, now that we have flicked the switch and set icons to be off by default, we need to fix relevant applications to match. You can help! Whenever you see a program that has menu items for objects where those menu items now don't include icons, report a bug on the program that it should use always-show-icons for those particular items. And conversely, whenever you see a program with icons on menu items for things that aren't objects, report a bug that the icons should be removed. Examples of menu items that count as objects, and should therefore have icons: applications, documents (including any recent documents in a "File" menu), disks, partitions, folders, bookmarks, history items, IM accounts, IM statuses, user accounts. Examples of menu items that don't count as objects, and should therefore *not* have icons: openable windows (e.g. "Edit" > "Preferences" or "Go" > "Edit Bookmarks"), toolbars (e.g. "View" > "Toolbars" > anything), actions (e.g. "Go" > "Back"). Unlike menus in Windows, whether a menu item has an equivalent toolbar button is irrelevant to whether the menu item should have an icon. ---------------- Kindly identify the applications that need icons and report it here, add them by using "Also affects project". ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Applications need to use "gtk_image_menu_item_set_always_show_image" for essential icons. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/408361 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
