Created attachment 173080 [details] this one line patch adds Inherits=breeze as hicolor misses many icons Oxygen icon theme is missing many icons and this will not change in the future so let's inherit from breeze icon theme to fill all blanks. Patch included - tested and working. As you can see in this patch now oxygen inherits only from hicolor icon theme. This does not solve the issue of missing icons because hicolor theme also looks not to be updated with new icons. That is why someone should reconsider to inherit from breeze only because breeze is the most complete and current icon theme. How about changing all kde c++ code default icon theme from hicolor to breeze? I do not like this current trend, which started with Windows8 and Linux followed, to replace beautiful color, artistic icons with primitive monochrome icons. Especially now when we finally have affordable high resolution full color desktops with translucency so we could fully see all those fine details. Breeze icons in tray and notifications menus looks like monochrome icons taken from early X release in 1984.
