LO set-up options - View options

Hi
Could someone with a Linux set-up please confirm, or otherwise, that the Automatic icon style is KDE or Gnome as stated in the documentation.
In Windows it is Automatic(Tango). I'm just after confirmation of the Automatic setting.

Thanks

Hi :slight_smile:
I am using Automatic Tango in Ubuntu 10.04 (or something).  I think this is the version downloaded from the official LibreOffice website rather than the Ubuntu-ised version from their repos but i'm not sure.

I found how to check the icon set from this wiki-guide
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Production#Sample_screenshots
"
The choice of the LO icon set is found in Tools > Options

LibreOffice > View; in the User Interface section of that page,

under Icon size and style, choose Galaxy (default).

I can confirm that the statement is true for the Debian version of LO. I use Ubuntu 12.04, and can select the icon set that system uses. When KDE is selected for the icon set, the Automatic icon style is Galaxy as it the Default. When Gnome is selected, the Automatic icon style is Tango. When I select Oxygen, the Automatic icon style is Oxygen.
      So, it is possible that the Automatic icon style is determined by the operating system: change the system icon set, and change the Automatic icon style. This should be checked for Windows, Linux (RPM), and Mac. I don't know how important this may be for the average person who studies the User Guides ...

Xubuntu 12.04 : Automatic = Tango

And additional comment based upon some research. While people can change their system icon set, very few people will do so. Very likely I am one of the few people who have done this. So, at best, what I have found, could be placed in a tip for the few people that change their system icon set. Perhaps Jean could comment about this.

Hello

There is a comment in the Preface about what you see. This does mention how to change the icon set. Look in "What you see may be different" in the Preface for the Getting Started Guide for LO version 4.0.
