My setup is kde/plasma5 and cinnamon 2.8 on fedora23. In plasma5/systemsettings5 is have defined that i do not want any icons in my buttons. When working in cinnamon, i start the kate editor. Opening menus in kate like 'settings/configure kate' or 'help/about kde' the buttons are, as expected, without icons. But, opening 'settings/configure shortcuts', there we do have icons in the buttons... The same is true for any dialog started inside systemsettings5 when being in cinnamon-DE. systemsettings/configure does indeed show no icons on its buttons, but settings like 'applicaton style' or 'icons' (or any other you like) does show icons inside the buttons. Very annoying.... Reproducible: Always
it's not necessary to use cinnamon-DE, it is sufficient to switch over from 'breeze' widget style to 'gtk+ style' in systemsettings5 / application style / widget style menu while being in plasmashell5
that's an issue of the gtk+ style of Qt, that's an upstream Qt project
ok.... So what do we need to do? Not in our control? Other bugtracker? Please advise.
