[Bug 834495] Re: Edit Connections tabs have wrong-color mono icons

 

I'm ambivalent on whether the icons should be retained. On the one hand,
(non-document) tabs shouldn't have both icons and text in their titles.
On the other, tabs aren't scalable to future connection types, multiple
network adapters, etc, so I think they eventually should change from
tabs to a listbox, and that listbox should use icons.

... Anyway, in bug 541882 the equivalent problem in the Sound
Preferences was fixed while retaining the icons. Basically:

- ubuntu-mono should provide icons with names like -wired-panel,
-wireless-panel, and -wwan-panel

  - the network menu should use those icons

- Humanity or Hicolor should provide icons with names like -wired,
-wireless, and -wwan

  - the Edit Connections window should use those icons.

Title:
  Edit Connections tabs have wrong-color mono icons

Status in “network-manager-applet” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “ubuntu-mono” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Click Edit Connections in the network menu. The tabs use the ubuntu-
  mono icons except that the background is light so the icons are hard
  to distinguish on Ambiance.

  Either the icons should be over-ridden to always show dark icons
  (ubuntu-mono-light) or the icons should just be disabled.
