If you resize your panel to be a little bit thicker or thinner, does Elisa's icon size change?

Taskbar - 32px to 40px of Elisa

Hello Nate, thank you for writing, On the attach a short demonstration from 32px to 40px of taskbar.

It start with 32px, 34px, 36px, 38px and 40px.

So, only in 40px does it seem clearly good.

For example, Dolphin's icon is more complete from 32px to 40px, as well as many other icons, Elisa seems a little small in size.

I see what's going on here. Elisa has a 22px icon in the icon theme, and 22 is closer to 32 and 48 is, so at that size the icon theme gives you the small icon. This 22px icon isn't needed; I'll remove it.

Remove 22px colorful app icons

These aren't needed; only the 48px size is desired. The small sizes of
these icons can cause apps and Plasma to display inappropriately-sized
versions of app icons when the icon renderer is told to not scale icons.

Remove nonstandard colorful app icon sizes

In general, colorful app icons are 48px in size. When apps offer other
colorful versions at other sizes, it offers the benefit of
pixel-perfection at those sizes, with the drawback of uneven sizing
between app icons in UIs that snap icons to the next closest existing
size, like the Task Manager does.

Thus there would be a preference list of ideal outcomes:
1. All app icon include versions for all sizes. Drawback: tons of work
   that, realistically, won't happen.
2. All app icons only include the 48px version. Drawback: blurriness
   when app icons are displayed at sizes other than 48px when using a
   low DPI screen.
3. Some app icons include colorful versions at some random sizes.
   Drawback: still get blurriness for *most* app icons displayed at
   non-48px size, but also get mismatched sizes in the Task Manager and
   potentially other places too.

Right now we're at outcome 3. This MR moves Breeze icons to outcome 2 for
icons of actual apps. Outcome 1 would be ideal, but would be orders of
magnitude more work that I don't foresee materializing.

Elisa Icon - Recently Adjusted

Lately from (Frameworks 6.18.0 / Gear 25.08.1)  it seems fixed to me, if we compared to the previous [Attach] photo it looks better now.

However, I would like to enlarged a little more? i mean in the dimension of Dolphin icon if possible, it would be ideal in my view. Thank you.
Comment 7 Nate Graham 2025-09-23 15:28:41 UTC
It could be enlarged a bit. That would require changes to the actual icon itself though.
