SUMMARY I know this is very minor and most users wouldn't notice it, but... The breeze icon for updates and the "Up to date" image on discover is a circle containing counter-clockwise arrows, yet the "Fetching updates..." animation on discover rotates clockwise. I'm on Kubuntu 19.04 with backports enabled.
the update* icons also have the arrows going counter-clockwise, so I guess we should just have the spinner go that way too. Moving to qqc2-desktop-style which is where the animation styling lives.
I wouldn't change the direction. Plasma's busy indicator also turns clockwise. Instead, the icon should be changed.
I agree that the icons should be changed. Both Apple (macOS) Software Update and Mozilla Firefox Updater uses icons with clockwise arrows.
Yeah ok, that makes sense. Moving to Breeze icons.

Git commit 74c4155ff3d703e299a3d86e7d3d030d2c6151e1 by Nate Graham. Committed on 18/07/2019 at 19:12. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. Use clockwise arrows for *refresh* and update-* icons Summary: Right now we are inconsistent with the arrow directionality for our circular icons: some use clockwise arrows, and some use counterclockwise. This patch standardizes everything on the clockwise direction. This not only makes everything nice and consistent, but it also fixes the busy indictor spinner looking weird (it rotates clockwise, like all opther busy spinners we've ever seen in any UI toolkit). FIXED-IN: 5.61 Test Plan: {F7046657} {F7046658} {F7046660} {F7046661} {F7046668} {F7046669} {F7046670} The eagle-eyed reviewer will note that the different icons also have different styles of arrows and their rotational offset is also different, but if that's a pre-existing issue that can be done in another patch, if it's also something we want to unify.

This also fix the wrong direction icon in Kickoff menu and log out screen? (the arrows in that points to left).
Yes
