Description Leo 2006-05-07 22:30:26 EDT

Description of problem:
A while back, I have raised the issue that the ~/Desktop icon should
not have a component from gnome default icon theme.

It is not isometric perspective[1] and it does *NOT* use the Bluecurve
palette[1].

In addition, the Places menu contains a different icon
(which *is* Bluecurve) for the same item (the Desktop directory).

Comment 2 Nicu Buculei 2006-05-08 04:40:47 EDT

It appears the Desktop icon in Nautilus is a combination of the Blueurve folder
icon and the desktop emblem from
/usr/share/icons/gnome/48x48/emblems/emblem-desktop.png and the Desktop icon in
the Places panel menu is the Bluecurve Desktop icon from
/usr/share/icons/Bluecurve/48x48/apps/icon-desktop.png

As both icon refers to the same entity (the Desktop directory) it would make
sense (and be consistent) to use one icon in both cases (Nautilus and Places)

Comment 3 Ray Strode [halfline] 2006-05-08 10:58:30 EDT

Makes sense to me, too.  Adding to FC6Target tracker.

Comment 4 Matthias Clasen 2006-09-16 00:02:20 EDT

gnome-panel uses the gnome-fs-desktop icon for the "Desktop" item in the places
menu. That would have to be replaced by the icon+emblem combination used by
nautilus. Note that the same icon is used by the "Show Desktop" applet, but that
is probably fine to change as well

Comment 5 Matthias Clasen 2006-09-25 23:55:22 EDT

This should probably be fixed by switching all users of this icon to the
icon-naming-spec name "user-desktop"

Comment 6 Leo 2007-05-13 06:09:14 EDT

This bug was originally reported as #183015 more than a year ago. It persists
till today. I wonder would it be possible to actually close it. No activity has
been seen for quite some time.

Comment 7 Leo 2007-05-27 10:33:10 EDT

The icon for 'desktop' in panel is 'user-desktop'.

The emblem for ~/Desktop is 'emblem-desktop'

`gnome-fs-desktop' for backwards compability to versions prior                 
                                     to icon name spec

Comment 9 Nicu Buculei 2008-04-04 06:00:33 EDT

This bug was filled against an old Fedora version (FC5) ans since we changed the
default icon theme from Bluecurve to Mist is no longer relevant.
