No, that's the whole point that I tried to explain: no fallback could reasonably cater for all the different zoom icons, so if a theme doesn't have those then it better falls back to Oxygen instead of using an incorrect icon. Better inconsistent in the style than conveying a wrong metaphor. -- Jakob ______________________________________________________________________________ kde-artists@kde.org | https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-artists
