you didnt get me right. i opposed to definitive killing of old icons for people who get used to them and want to continue using them. in the begining i was silent and prepared to 'fix' it locally for me, but seeing second developer with the same problem is good indication that we will anger some set of long-time users as well. > Obviously you think the current icons are better, again i never said this. they might be better for newcomer or people from KDE, etc. so in some points i do agree with you: - lyx 2.0 is good excuse to move further with icons. - make only new default set mandatory to support for new icons otherwise its going to be maintenance burden. in other respects i disagree: - there was already request in bugzilla to allow more themes. you just WONTFIX it by claiming that oxygen is the right (TM) icon set. only those few people who touch the thread showed that the right way vary conbsiderably among us. for example even if miracle happens and everybody agrees that old ones are wrong then we have just another fight between libreoffice and oxygen. allowing more themes solves this. its like with linux distros. those which appeal survive, those which do not fade away after some time. - i dont see much harm to allow other sets. one more combobox in prefs... > If you could describe some reasons why you prefer the current icons, that > would be useful to maybe find a compromise or to take into account in > future designs. my reasons are not useful for future designs and its not reasoning, but feeling. i dont feel any disturbance with the current set so why to suffer from reprogramming my mind maps for new toolbars. pavel
