Control: tags -1 patch Below is a patch that updates the default synaptic application icon size from 16x16 to 48x48. According to Git logs the synaptic application icon has been 48x48 since at least 2004.
$ file pixmaps/synaptic.png
pixmaps/synaptic.png: PNG image data, 48 x 48, 8-bit/color RGBA,
non-interlaced
Testing with a small 640x480 resolution desktop size, the higher 48x48
resolution icon looked OK and matched other current desktop applications
(e.g. xfce-terminal).
The current synaptic get_gdk_pixbuf() calls used to read the application icon,
don't define a size parameter, so the header file defaults downscale the icon
to look pixelated.
./rgmainwindow.cc:962: GdkPixbuf *icon = get_gdk_pixbuf( "synaptic" );
./rguserdialog.cc:83: GdkPixbuf *icon = get_gdk_pixbuf( "synaptic" );
I've also submitted a PR with this simple patch.
