Hi All,<br>
<br>
Geany has in the past specified a fixed image, (the jewel encrusted teapot), as the icon to use for its top level window.<br>
<br>
There has been a request for Geany to follow the icon set by the theme. This has been committed.<br>
<br>

I'm very curious that application icons be themed at all. IMO the icon belongs to the application and is part of its identity, and not some theme. This is also why Linux Mint makes me mad because of its icons for various applications including Geany.<br>
<br>
(I always switch the icon theme to a less intrusive one [GNOME-Wise which resembles the Mint-y look a bit] on a fresh Mint installation).<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yes, why do theme developers feel that it is a benefit to users to keep changing the application icon in each theme. The icon is intended to identify the application, changing it removes that identification that the user is used to between the icon and the application and devalues the brand value of the project. There are many things that can be done but normally should not be done, and this is one of them.</div>
