That's because it's an app. We don't currently force app icons to be symbolic (where possible) when they're in the sidebar. We could, but the issue here is that most apps don't have symbolic icons. This would work for the Help Center app because it does happen to have a symbolic icon (at least with Breeze theme), but most other apps wouldn't respond to the request for a symbolic icon. I forgot all about this issue because I removed the Help Center app from the sidebar ages ago. Will think about it. Conclusion: we move KHelpCenter into a new "Help" category, and then consider other occurrences of this somewhere between "intentional" and "user misconfiguration if they don't like the effect". :) For the former, see https://invent.kde.org/teams/vdg/issues/-/issues/81. Git commit bf682e1dcb8d34365f6a0f031ca030beff0323b4 by Nate Graham. Committed on 24/10/2024 at 14:13. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. Don't show "Core" KDE apps at the top level of the menu structure Git history suggests this was implemented during or before the KDELibs era. However it's clear that we moved away from it over time, since today only KHelpCenter makes use of the feature. This has proved awkward and generated bug reports. Let's stop doing it.
