Making icons

Sticky

Big fan of the Papirus icon set, but I have a single app that currently doesn't have a theme icon. Is it possible to take the default icon image and shrink it down to scale to match Papirus? The app is Sober from Flathub.

You can always request a new icon to Papirus devs https://github.com/PapirusDevelopmentTeam/papirus-icon-theme?tab=readme-ov-file#icon-request .

Sticky Is it possible to take the default icon image and shrink it down to scale to match Papirus?

It might work but it might also break other things. You might have to edit the desktop file to pick the resized icon.

Summoning the prolific icon maker. 😉@SethStorm666 know about this stuff more than I do.

Hello,

The icon name is org.vinegarhq.Sober and is usally .svg file which can be edited in Inkscape. Papirus uses multiply apps destinations regarding size. eg. ../apps/16 ../apps/22 ../apps/64 etc. etc. So you have to place it in every of them, also scalable.

Here's mine Sober icon:
