Hardcoded tray icons

Papirus icon theme now supports Hardcode-Tray script

NOTE: To get Papirus to work right with Hardcode-Tray, use the hardcode-tray option --conversion-tool Inkscape:

hardcode-tray --conversion-tool Inkscape

KDE colorscheme

Support for monochrome icons for KDE colorscheme is now available:

Papirus - for dark plasma theme & light color scheme
Papirus Dark - for dark plasma theme & color scheme
Papirus Light - for light plasma theme & color scheme

NOTE: Non-KDE apps don't support KDE colorscheme on the system tray, but you can replace color by manually.

What colors are used for monochrome icons on KDE?

Papirus:

actions, devices, places
- class: ColorScheme-Text color: #5c616c
- class: ColorScheme-Highlight color: #5294e2
panel
- class: ColorScheme-ButtonBackground color: #d3dae3
- class: ColorScheme-Highlight color: #5294e2

Papirus-Dark:

actions, devices, places and panel
- class: ColorScheme-Text color: #d3dae3
- class: ColorScheme-Highlight color: #5294e2

Papirus-Light:

actions, devices, places and panel
- class: ColorScheme-Text color: #5c616c
- class: ColorScheme-Highlight color: #5294e2

Folder's color

Papirus has Folder colors support that allows you to change a global color of folders or just one of them.

Available colors:

For KDE, colors of individual folders can be changed using dolphin-folder-color

Caveats for using dolphin-folder-color

The flags of the kdialog command used by the scripts varies by version. Some newer versions lack the --caption and --geometry flags. You may need to edit the script files manually so that they can be successfully run.
Papirus icon theme does not have the same color set as the default Breeze theme, so one or two of the colors may not work.

Currently, there is no easy way to change the global color of folders in KDE. You may edit the themes by yourself if you wish.

Extras

Recommendations

For GTK, better use icons alongside GTK theme Arc Theme
For KDE, better use alongside Arc KDE

Manual fixes

For Cinnamon users

For Cinnamon users who want use Papirus icon theme with arc-theme, we recommend the following combinations:

light theme

Window borders Arc or Arc-Darker
Icons ePapirus
Controls Arc or Arc-Darker
Desktop Arc or Arc-Dark

dark theme

Window borders Arc-Dark
Icons Papirus-Dark
Controls Arc-Dark
Desktop Arc-Dark with an another color for tray icons:

sudo sed -i.orig 's/white/#d3dae3/g' /usr/share/themes/Arc-Dark/cinnamon/cinnamon.css

Also, increase panel size with Allow Cinnamon to scale panel text and icons according to the panel height option because Papirus contains only 22px and 24px panel's icons.

For GNOME 3 users

For Gnome users who want use Papirus icon theme with arc-theme, we recommend use TopIcons Plus extension with icon size 22px or 24px

And change icons color for panel:

sudo sed -i.orig 's/white/#d3dae3/g' /usr/share/themes/Arc-Dark/gnome-shell/gnome-shell.css

Also, we recommend using AppIndicator/KStatusNotifierItem Support extension for appindicator-apps, because patched version of sni-qt for hardcode-tray doesn't work without that on gnome-shell.

To fix tiny icons size of the extension use the following command (details rgcjonas/gnome-shell-extension-appindicator#68):

sed -i.orig '/indicator, icon_size/a icon_size += 8;' ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/[email protected]/appIndicator.js

For Unity users

For Unity users, we recommend installing patched Notify-OSD and change an icon size to 33px.

~/.notify-osd file:

slot-allocation = dynamic
bubble-expire-timeout = 10sec
bubble-vertical-gap = 10px
bubble-horizontal-gap = 10px
bubble-corner-radius = 24px
bubble-icon-size = 33px
bubble-gauge-size = 6px
bubble-width = 240px
bubble-background-color = 2f343f
bubble-background-opacity = 95%
text-margin-size = 10px
text-title-size = 100%
text-title-weight = bold
text-title-color = adb7bf
text-title-opacity = 100%
text-body-size = 90%
text-body-weight = normal
text-body-color = eaeaea
text-body-opacity = 100%
text-shadow-opacity = 50%
location = 1
bubble-prevent-fade = 1
bubble-close-on-click = 1
bubble-as-desktop-bg = 0

Also, you can change Unity launcher icon and unity-tweak-tool icons. Look into the extra folder in the icon theme.
