^ take a look at /usr/share/pixmaps/transmission.png

Is that the one you want to change?

VastOne · 2012-06-18 16:31:37

Thanks pidsley, I was about to post that

pidsley · 2012-06-18 16:35:00

I looked at the method in the wiki, but it seems to me to be easier to just change the icon in iceweasel.desktop or transmission.desktop. What am I missing? (I know symlinks are useful, but they can also be very confusing, like the grub backdrop symlinks that are three layers deep).

Icewesel. 13.0.1

The logo under pixmaps isn't the one I want to change but I'd like to change it to that. I should mention I installed the ubo icons pack found at gnome look. It changed the transmission icon but I'd like to use the default one instead.

VastOne · 2012-06-18 16:36:22

^^ Not to mention that it has recently changed.

I prefer the .desktop method as well.

VastOne · 2012-06-18 16:39:13

@tedbell

Edit the .desktop files in

/usr/share/applications

to point directly to the icons you want to use

OR,

copy what you want to use to that ubo icons pack directory in /home/user name/.icons/wherever the current one is/

EDIT - corrected a mistake

damn i should have dont that from the beginning.
thanks!

EDIT: I just temporarily reverted back to the default icons but transmission is still using the old one.

EDIT again: Is it possible to get icons smaller than 22px? I shrink my panel down to 18 and the system tray icons either disappear or are garbled.

^ Sure tedbell, glad you got it sorted... smile

VastOne · 2012-06-18 17:11:10

In most applications, you can find the different sizes of icons /usr/share/icons or online, or you can edit them and shrink them with Gimp.

I am not sure what happened with Transmission, what happened there?

Maybe it's pulling the icon from another location. Any possiblilities?

VastOne · 2012-06-18 17:15:16

Try a search for transmission* and determine which icon it is using and where it is located. Once you have the location and file, it is easier to make the changes.

Good evening.

I ran across several posts in the forums mentioning a middle-click on the desktop will bring up your tint2. Very cool. cool

I am toying with the idea of parting with my tint2 panel altogether (well, except for the notification tray because I assume it is my only way of having one).

If I have my browser in one desktop, and I have a terminal in desktop 2, for example, I know I can click, hold, and drag one item to another desktop in tint2. However, this does not seem possible via the middle-click method.

Is there a way to move open programs between desktops without an active tint2 panel present?

I hope I made that clear.

Thank you. smile

How do I get my battery level indicator to appear in my tint2 bar?

Thank you smile

@mariannemarlow. I've merged your tint2 help request into our main tint2 help thread.

Aaah, so you're the responsible one! I answered that question and when I clicked submit, poof, the thread had disappeared. smile

Sorry fortyseven. I'm sure mariannemarlow would appreciate you posting it again smile

I think Awebb's link pretty much covered it though. I was just gonna say to check /home/user/.config/tint2/tint2rc somewhere near the bottom (iirc) for the battery section. The first line should read:

battery = 1

Also make sure that xfce power manager is not commented out in /home/user/.config/openbox/autostart.

I think thy are both as you say already:

tint2 battery line

# Battery
battery = 1
battery_low_status = 20
battery_low_cmd = notify-send "battery low"
battery_hide = 96
bat1_font = Liberation Sans 10
bat2_font = Liberation Sans 8
battery_font_color = #FFFFFF 100
battery_padding = 2 0
battery_background_id = 0

xfce

## Enable power management

Could this be something to do with my "acpi=off" that I need in my boot in order to get into #! ?

fortyseven · 2012-06-26 09:57:54

Try setting the battery_hide in tint2 to 0?
