I really hope something standardized can be done.. on the surface, i like that GTK has very semantic names, like success,warning and error. Tough one concern is that since injects the "fg" style everywhere, it's really possible to tint only the -symbolic names (designers often change their mind where and under what circumstances monochrome icons should be, it's all depending to design trends that may be valid today and not tomorrow) having to set a class for every shape that has to be colored requires more work for the designer, tough in the end the result is more controllable. -- Marco Martin _______________________________________________ xdg mailing list xdg@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xdg
