In Plasma Icons we have the following MAJOR Principle "Icons should NEVER look blurred". So to achieve this goal Plasma is using PlasmaCore.IconItem and I suppose in the future something in Kirigami that in order to achieve this icons are drawn ONLY from sizes provided from the active ICON THEME when the size requested is BELOW 64px. For icon sizes >=64px. there is no problem. [2] Latte on the other hand has another goal "Smoothness during Parabolic effect as FIRST GOAL and avoiding icon blurness is not mandatory". If the user chooses an Items Size that is provided from their icon theme then blurness is not appearing in Latte. To achieve this Latte is providing a fork for PlasmaCore.IconItem that is called Latte.IconItem Applets: Because applets developers and plasma applets are not considering [2] case as valid Latte is doing some automatic heuristics. Latte when a plasma applet loads searches in it to find the PlasmaCore.IconItem that is used when this applet is shown in the panel and IF that IconItem is found then Latte disables it and overlays above it a Latte.IconItem. Nasty workaround I know but it works. The heuristic mechanism can take blacklisting of applets in order to not be used or whitelisting which means that Latte has a specific way for this applet in order to reach at its PlasmaCore.IconItem So problems like this first need to be investigated from Latte side to identify if the Latte heuristics became invalid somehow... when plasma 5.16 reaches my system I will have more information. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
