Description Clément Labadie 2021-01-12 08:20:50 UTC
Created attachment 134759 [details]
Left: places icons at 225% scaling and above. Right: places symbolic icons at 200% scaling.

SUMMARY
When the global scaling factor is set above 200%, symbolic (line-art) places icons in Dolphin do not scale and are replaced by "regular" folder icons.

It is possible to manually re-assign symbolic icons (right click > change) as a workaround, but some of them are not available as standalone symbolic icons (i.e., desktop, network) and others cannot be changed this way (i.e., trash, hard drives).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set global scale above 200% in Display Settings (tested with 225, 250, 300).
2. Log out and back in.
3. Launch Dolphin.

OBSERVED RESULT
Icons in the places panel are displayed as "regular" folder icons (s. attachment, left side).

EXPECTED RESULT
Icons in the places panel should be displayed as symbolic line-art icons (s. attachment, right side).

Comment 1 Nate Graham 2021-01-12 17:37:15 UTC
Can confirm with >200% scaling. It affects more than just Dolphin's Places panel sidebar; it's everywhere for all monochrome icons that have colorful versions at 32px size. Moving to KIconThemes, which is I believe where KIconLoader lives.

I tried to work around it with https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/breeze-icons/-/merge_requests/3 but I failed. Maybe someone else can figure out why it didn't work.

There's some name mixup with the directories, will fix

Fix @3x icons

The directory names were e.g. "16x@3x" but were referenced as "16@3x" causing it not to find the icons.
