Buggy icons

[leobasilio]

There's something wrong with the new icons added by 655479d. I'm running MATE 1.20.1 and here's how I see them:

The weird thing is that it looks perfect on Inkscape. I tried saving it as plain svg, but it didn't have any effect.

Weird indeed. I checked both icons with the SVG validator by W3c and the SVG sanitizer, both were happy with the input. The only issue the W3C validator found was the SVG version number that should better be removed.

In Ubuntu they also work perfectly. Does MATE perhaps have known issues with SVG rendering?

After update today icon has weird shape + since its black you cant even see it.

Im running Kubuntu 20.04

Okay, this one looks like symbolic icons are only supported by Gnome, which changes the icon's colour depending on the theme

Similar issue on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Gnome)

Okay I've been able to reproduce this crazy rendering on Xubuntu 18.04. Will push an update soon.

The garbled appearance was clearly caused by SVGO I used to optimise the icons. This has been undone.

I have downloaded the new files and it looks fine now.

The color doesn't match, but that's likely due to my custom icons theme. However, it seems that the key color should be #bebebe and not black. This might affect other people.

Resolved in 2.3.3.

I will look into fixing the color, I've also opened a question on SO.

For those interested which SVGO's option exactly breaks the SVGs, it's the convertPathData plugin. The result looks fine when used as:

svgo --disable=convertPathData ...
