[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1337620@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I have an application indicator which shows the moon phase/orientation
as its icon (along with a text label). When the indicator does an update
(several times per hour), the icon is recreated (as an SVG file) and so
the icon changes over time.

Recently, the icon is not showing any change unless I mouse click the
icon (or label). I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit and my indicator uses Python
3 and Appindicator3.

I have attached a sample script which is representative of the issue and
shows an icon which should change every three seconds. The icon itself
is an SVG file and shows a numerical count, starting from zero and
increments every three seconds.

I have tested on Ubuntu 12.04 and Xubuntu 12.04 (via VirtualBox) and the
icon DOES change on each three second update.

Testing on Ubuntu 14.04, the icon does NOT change UNLESS I click on it.
If I change the label text on each update, the icon WILL also change,
but only if I don't repeat the SAME text for the label.

FYI: I initially asked this at http://askubuntu.com/questions/490634
/application-indicator-icon-not-changing-until-clicked but have had no
response.


Thanks in advance,

Bernmeister.
