This icon theme is not compatible with LXDE.

[Arslan S.]

i will test new icon themes in lxde and see if i can do anything

I do not know the original intention of the creators. I don't think you have tod eal with it, I just mentioned that they are not usable with LXDE.

[Arslan S.]

i have found the problem

these icon themes depend on each other because they inherit from each other

the problem is missing dependencies

also librsvg is a dependency i will send corrected dep lists

[bmarkus]

Sounds good The easiest is to use lxappearance. There is a preview, so you can see how it looks like and if there are major problems with the theme.

[Arslan S.]

Sounds good

loading librsvg.tcz and gnome-icon-theme.tcz fixes the issue

actually for some icon themes there are more icon themes inherited from but to keep dependency low i have added only gnome-icon-theme to dep files

after corrected deps loaded only problem with lxde is the left top corner desktop item "My Documents"  should that be user's home instead?

[Arslan S.]

after rebooting my computer "My Documents" icon reappeared correctly as the selected icon theme's user-home

exit to prompt and startx also does the same trick

Right, it works now. Unfortunately gnome-icon-theme is rather big. I do not know what this icon theme is adding to gnome theme what is missing there. But that's fine, there must be a price for better visual appearance

You are right, it points to home instead of My Document. Will check how it works in other distros and correct either the title or the destination.

[Arslan S.]

the answer is simple gnome icon theme is their default fallback theme if an icon does not exist in the icon theme then it is searched in gnome icon theme

index.theme of humanity icon theme:

Code: [Select]

[Icon Theme]
Name=Humanity
Comment=Smooth modern theme designed to be intuitive.
Inherits=gnome,hicolor
also i have to mention again librsvg is needed to load svg icons and some icons in icon themes does not have a png counterpart
