Suru++ Asprómauros

These aspromautic or monochromatic icons are based on Suru++ 30 Dark icons of sizes 16, 24 and 32. It is flat, minimalist and designed for full dark environments.

The word "Asprómauros" comes from the modern Greek word ασπρόμαυρος, which means black and white.

Observe that Suru++ Asprómauros also supports gradient colours, and is compatible with Oomox and with Suru++ Colourise.

Known bugs

Snap-built apps

Unfortunately the snap-built apps are not supported almost by any icons themes, because the icons are hardcoded and the desktop files are not hosted in the folder ~/.local/share/applications or /usr/share/applications.

To solve it, please follow the instructions:

1. Do:

# Copy all desktop files of all snap-built apps to "~/.local/share/applications"
sudo cp /var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/*.desktop ~/.local/share/applications
# To de-sudo the files
sudo chmod -R 777 ~/.local/share/applications
# To remove the duplicates
sudo rm /var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/*.desktop

2. Go to the directory ~/.local/share/applications;
3. Open each desktop file of snap app with your favourite text editor and modify the encoded path of Icon to the simple path with no extension. For example, if you use Insomnia:

Icon=snap/icons/icon.png
Icon=insomnia

AppImage-built apps

With AppImageLauncher installed, you click an AppImage, it is automatically integrated to ~/Applications, and desktop files are automatically created into ~/local/share/applications. But if you modify one of the AppImage-built app desktop file to correct the icon path, AppImageLauncher reverts automatically the desktop file to the original and keeps again the icon path hardcoded. It also removes the option StartupWMClass. We recommend you to ban AppImageLauncher.

1. Remove appimagelauncher via terminal;
2. Make all AppImages executable and trusted:

chmod a+x *.AppImage

3. Reboot;
4. Create the desktop files manually in the directory ~/.local/share/applications. Do not forget of adding the option StartupWMClass (to know which, use the command xprop WM_CLASS to calibrate an AppImage window) or the icon will be unrecognised or ugly.

Hardcoded application icons with ugly name

We have already icons, but it is wrong or ugly name, or because the icon is hardcoded. For example, the application GitHub Desktop used Icon=desktop.png and other apps, like Insomnia, use Icon=icon.png, or worse, Icon=stupid/path/icon.png.

To deal with hardcoded application icons we recommend to install hardcode-fixer. Suru++ supports most of the applications in the list. If hardcode-fixer doesn't support your favourite app yet, please open an issue here or edit your .desktop file manually.

Hardcoded tray icons

To fix hardcoded tray icons, install and use Hardcode-Tray script. A list of supported applications is available here.

To get Suru++ to work right with Hardcode-Tray script, use the hardcode-tray option --conversion-tool RSVGConvert:

sudo -E hardcode-tray --conversion-tool RSVGConvert --size 22 --theme Suru++

Unrecognised and ugly icons

Okular icon and other icons

Not just Suru++, it also affects Numix icons theme. It is a missed StartupWMClass option in the desktop files in KDE and an icon cache bug in GNOME and KDE.

1. Install and use StartupWMClassFixer;
2. Install and use Stacer to clean caches;
3. Log out and log in.
