weather.svg - Plasma theme icon set file with draft to turn Breeze icons into
mono-colored ones
When using the kdeplasma-addons weather applet on a panel, the weather status
icon sticks out from the rest of the panel due to being colorful.
For a consistent appearance of the Plasma panel it might be nicer though to
have mono-colored icons for the weather status as well.
Existing work known to me:
The weather widget from clearmartin (https://store.kde.org/p/998917/) uses
characters from a font to get mono-colored icons,
weathericons-regular-webfont-2.0.10.ttf (seems to be from
https://erikflowers.github.io/weather-icons/).
I once tried myself to turn the Breeze weather icons into less-colored ones by
simply changing the colors (with gimmicks to use the "highlight" color for the
lightnings ;) , also replaced the sun circle with a smaller ones with beams),
but I failed at least when it came to the different precipitation variants,
where not only the shape was meaningful in the colored normal version.
Last state of working draft document with all the icons attached to your
inspiration. It is marked-up for use with Plasma, so if you deploy the file as
/usr/share/plasma/desktoptheme/default/icons/weather.svg and do a "plasmashell
--restart", you then can test the draft yourself with the kdeplasma-addons
weather applet.
See also attached screenshot with some samples.
