[SOLVED] Dark Notification Icon Background in MediterraneanLight Theme? - N4RPS - 03-13-2015 Hello, All! How do I get dark Notification Area icon backgrounds in the panel of the MediterraneanLight Theme? Here's a screenshot, to help explain: [img height=449 width=800]http://i.imgur.com/6WA7tU9.png[/img] At least My-Weather-Indicator lets you choose between light and dark icons. I could load the other affected icons into GIMP and edit the backgrounds to be transparent, but that's a hassle. No doubt I'd have to do that for most of the new notification icons other programs add. Since I tend towards finding the most difficult way to do just about EVERYTHING, I figured I'd ask to see if there's an easier solution out there than mine.. 73 DE N4RPS Rob Re: How Do I Get Dark Notification Area Icon Background in MediterraneanLight Theme? - Scott(0) - 03-13-2015 Hi Rob, I don't know about this specific situation but when this sort of thing happens to me logging out and back in usually clears it. ~Scott Re: How Do I Get Dark Notification Area Icon Background in MediterraneanLight Theme? - N4RPS - 03-13-2015 Hello! I tried what you suggested. It changed some of them, but the icons in the notification area (Bluetooth, wireless, and volume) are still dark on a light background. (Tuirns out they're a part of the icon theme.) After a little digging around online, it looks like the hard road for me after all. Will download a bunch of different icon themes until I get one that will do the trick... 73 DE N4RPS Rob Re: How Do I Get Dark Notification Area Icon Background in MediterraneanLight Theme? - Valtam - 03-13-2015 For those of us with less than ideal eyesight, please use imgur or some other image upload service that doesn't create small thumbnails. Thank you. Re: How Do I Get Dark Notification Area Icon Background in MediterraneanLight Theme? - N4RPS - 03-13-2015 Hello, Jerry. I used the default for the screenshooter, ZImageZ. Clicking the image makes it larger than the imgur link. Oh, well... Moved to imgur... 73 DE N4RPS Rob Re: How Do I Get Dark Notification Area Icon Background in MediterraneanLight Theme? - Valtam - 03-13-2015 Thanks Rob, you can also just restart the panel to test out themes: xfce4-panel --restart Re: How Do I Get Dark Notification Area Icon Background in MediterraneanLight Theme? - N4RPS - 03-13-2015 Hello! In their eminent wisdom, the folks at XFCE have modified Indicator Plugin to coexist with Unity - something I don't understand, seeing as how Unity fans detest XFCE, and vice versa. As a result, Indicator Plugin now works correctly with Gtk3 themes now. Workaround: Delete Indicator Plugin from the panel, so the Indicator Plugin icons appear in the Notification Area, instead. Go figure. At least I can partake of dark themes now... 73 DE N4RPS Rob
