Description Tech-Tac 2025-06-08 18:11:42 UTC 
SUMMARY
There is an icon theme that I really like the look of in application and system UI, but I think the icons it provides for various third party application logos do not look great, so I'd like to be able to use the app provided logos instead of the ones in the global theme. This can be on a per-app or global basis.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select an icon theme in system settings
2. Open kickoff or look at task manager
3. Observe application icon style

OBSERVED RESULT
Follows icon theme, expected and intended behavior

EXPECTED RESULT
Optionally, allow the user to ignore the icon theme provided app icons and use the official ones.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.14.0
Qt Version: 6.9.0

The requested option is too niche, sorry. If your icon theming preferences are really this granular, you'll probably be best off editing the icon theme directly, or making your own from bits and pieces of other themes you like.
