Hello I have a very big issue here I have installed the Nitrux icon theme and after applying it the major part of the system has gotten the changes BUT that has not occurred with the icon tasks task manager and even the task switcher, the icons on this place looks chaotic because in some apps the icon is not correctlly displayed, for example some icons uses a hicolor icon, others uses Breeze and others uses Nitrux icons (see the image on the URL path) but the icons are correctlly applyed, also when I pin Google chrome to the icon tasks and close it when I try to open it again KDE shows me the unknown file type dialog (this one that is displayed every time when the user try to open some unsupported / unknown file) and this is so strange Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use icon tasks 2. Open an application 3. See wich icon it gets Actual Results: the apps can get diferent icons Expected Results: 1.- Uniformity, make the task managers and switchers use the same icon theme on all the apps 2.- make the Google Chrome launcher working I have use the major severity level because it is grave for me, I want see uniformity on every task manager and use the launcher of all the apps with not issues
PS: pardon me by my bad English
Created attachment 89484 [details] The mentioned bug in action As you can see this must be fixed as soon as possible
There can be two reasons for this: 1. Most likely the icon theme is simply not complete, and then the system is falling back to other themes. 2. In some cases (I think Chrome is an example, if I recall correctly) application windows don't supply an icon name, but an image. In that case the icon is not themable, it is always provided by the window.
For the Google Chrome launcher not working: I can reproduce this, but please file a separate ticket for it. One issue per ticket please! :)
Ok, PS; Nitrux icons are complete, breeze not
For example when the Tomahawk launcher is not open it shows a Nitrux icon but when it is opened it shows the hicolor icon, the same thing with other apps
Chrome issue is related to the bug #340256 Task managers and switchers issue stills needing an urgent fix
Thanks, I missed bug 340256 because it was incorrectly not assigned to the Task Manager. The Tomahawk issue is most likely similar to '2' in my explanation, which means there's nothing to fix about it from the Task Manager side. I'll have a closer look later, though.
Git commit 83c5c176567177f70458a0f2890570613b70ab07 by Eike Hein. Committed on 07/11/2014 at 15:26. Pushed by hein into branch 'master'. Install taskmanagerrulesrc again and add a mapping for Google-chrome-stable. Google Chrome Beta uses a WM_CLASS matching it's .desktop storage id but the stable version does not.

And what can I do?
the Konsole has the same problem but with breeze icon, check my G+ attached URL for more info
Ok, thanks the Google chrome icon now works but the issue with the icons continues, many of the icons uses breeze + hicolor (Chrome Konsole Tomahawk Steam etc,) and others has the correct Nitrux style
I am having the same issue with icons on certain apps only showing the correct icon from the theme when not running but showing an app assigned icon when running. In the Plasma 4 series this was fixed by enabling the "Show launcher icons" option in the task manager but there is no option for that yet in the Plasma 5 version of the widget. Is this planned to be implemented in the future or something I could hack on and submit a fix for 5.3.0?
^ Feel free to work on this for 5.3 -- try to keep me in the loop on your plans though so there's no wasted effort in case something won't work for some reason.
