Hello everyone.
It is possible to change colouring of folder icon in Ubuntu MATE (16.04). And if icon set changes, those custom coloured icons remains default. I am looking into icons right now, and see some candidates. The thing is with that “some”, and always you can miss something. Better to know better, until you start editing graphics, right?
So, what/where are folder icons for custom colouring located?
Can I/how to change path for those icons with dconf, or any other way other than editing?
And if you have any suggestions, I am open for them;).
PS. I know that I am bothering You with some icon-related “PROblem”, but this one seems to be more system-related. It is always not wrong to ask, so they say, right?
Yes, Thank You.
I think You’ve just gave me “somewhere to start”. I am graphician, and I am too obsesive with such small things. If I do not manage to do it, then this will never give me respite. Differences are minimal, but they will hunt me in my dream.
Ok than, thank man:).
I think there is an in-built option to change folder colours in more recent UM releases, but they default to the standard Ambiant-MATE icon theme, so for uniformity you would need to use that icon theme.
Yes. If fact I am using it. It is by default, for some releases, I don’t know how many. But it works only with some icon themes – which obviously have appropriate icons. If theme does not have such icons, default one are in use. For example Papirus have folder colouring. But I am using Obisdian theme folder (which are really similar to Ambiant-MATE, but not the same;]). I’ve try to add coloured folders from Papirus to Obsidian, but still system uses those from Humanity (because those icons Ambiant-MATE uses too, I think). Obviously something more is going on here. Anyway, mentioned earlier site will have answers I am looking for.
Anyway, coffee is hot and work is waiting. Thanks for response. That was good word, you know - uniformity. That’s is my desire:).
