Hi,
I noticed a minor regression during my (very) recent upgrade to xfce
10. Apparently, most xfce applications don't seem to use the Tango
icons. For example, Thunar does not display the stock folder icon next
to the directory names anymore, instead there is no icon.
The xfce applications menu has no icons for e.g. "Logout", "Terminal",
"System", "Office" and only shows a generic page-like icon with a red
cross in the middle. However, applications that come with their own
icons are displayed properly in the start menu, e.g. firefox, mplayer,
gimp.
Does anybode else observe this and has discovered a reason for this behaviour?
Thanks in advance
Riggs

I saw this too. I solved it by going to the XFCE4 menu and choosing
Settings|Appearance and on the Icons tab, change the selection to GNOME
and then back to Tango. You should have your Tango icons back.

icons-human-azul and used that to switch from Tango and back again.
After that, everything is ok.
Thanks for this useful tip.

Exactly the same here. I did not have another set of icons installed as well :-)

Hi,
just that it does not get lost. This is the whole difference I observed:
diff -rN config-old/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xsettings.xml
.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xsettings.xml
6c6
< <property name="IconThemeName" type="empty"/>
---
> <property name="IconThemeName" type="string" value="Tango"/>
By the way, after the switching back and forth, two icons are still
missing: Multimedia/Mixer and Settings/Keyboard.
Not a big deal of course.
Thanks again

You must add misc/gnome-icon-theme.

solved the problem for me :-)
I'll install icons-human-azul next time I'm at the machine.
Shouldn't these icon themes be marked as dependencies to xfce4 ?
