Added Icons don't always show

[iomari]

Short Summary

I've added a couple of additional icon folders to the icon-themes folder. However they most often don't appear when I'm creating items.
Sometimes they show but most times I only see the default icon sets. IS this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Steps to Reproduce the Issue

1. Open the editor by using the tray icon
2. Click on an item
3. .CLick on the icon
4. Added icons don't show

Kando Version

v1.5

Installation Method

Via an installer downloaded from a release on GitHub

Desktop Environment

KDE on X11

Environment Version

kubuntu 24.10

Additional Information

Hi there! From the little info you provided, I cannot tell if it's a bug.

• You have to restart Kando in order to make new icon themes show up.
• Can you give an example icon folder which does not work?

This still does not help much.

• What is inside these directories?
• Have you launched Kando from command line? Maybe an error is printed.
• What do you mean with "Sometimes they show"? Is it reproducible? Does it depend on which icon directories are present? Or is it just random?

Please be more specific! If you just provide some very superficial information I can only guess what's going on on your end.

What I mean is that When I first added the icon folders, they were visible when I configured kando Most of my items are still using various icons from the various folders. But when I'm adding new items, I sometimes see all the folders and icons to choose from, but most times I only see the ones in the upload image. When this first happened, I would close and restart kando a few times and they would come back. But now, even after a whole system reboot, I still only see the ones in the image I sent.

As far as what is inside each folder, as an example, here is the contents of the ~/.config/kando/icon-themes/breeze-dark folder:

Again: Have you launched Kando from command line? Maybe an error is printed.
