After big gnome update, some icons missing on swaybar/reform-tray

Hi all!

Just did the massive full upgrade, with gnome, but continuing to use sway on my Pocket Reform. I noticed tho, that I lost some icons on reform-tray. Namely, for system monitor and reboot. Any suggestions on how to get them back?

Also, sometimes the battery indicator shows it is charging, although while on battery power. Maybe someone has an idea about the potential cause?

The last time that reform-tray was changed was August 2024. I’m unable to explain how menu items should just be missing from it. :frowning:

Maybe fixed by the recent work of minute, see the bottom of Battery voltage jumps

Is there a way I can make sure they are there? :slightly_smiling_face:

It looks like this now:

I am not sure if it’s related, because I am not seeing anything weird related to the battery on the oled display.

Oh shoot sorry I misunderstood your question! I think I know what’s going on. Can you give me the output of the following command:

gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface icon-theme

And this command:

dpkg -L papirus-icon-theme | grep /usr/share/icons/Papirus-Dark/symbolic/apps/utilities-system-monitor-symbolic.svg

Thanks!

I updated the icon scheme in gschemas to Adwaita, because GNOME looks really weird with Papirus icons. You can manually change the icons back to Papirus Dark using gnome-tweaks for example or use gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface icon-theme 'Papirus-Dark'.

Changing the theme to Papirus-Dark fixed it! Thank you!

The issue with battery indicator on waybar showing charging while on battery power is still present though.

Aha, I’d been wondering what caused that. Setting the icon-theme back to Papirus-Dark has fixed it for me too.

I also needed to set gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme=1 in ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini to get wofi back into dark mode. Prior to that it was displaying white text on a white background.
