Description: The Asteroid Belt is a theme suite for Zorin OS Pro/core and lite, but should work on any distro that uses Gnome 3.38 and current version of XFCE. The icon set is based loosely on Papirus and the GTK/Gnome-shell theme is a mod of Layan by Vince Liuice - https://www.gnome-look.org/p/1309214
9GTK-theme is very nice, even if I won't be using it ever because it's a dark theme. Personally, I don't like the icons because of that white border, but they surely 'jump out of the crowd'. I can also confirm that they do not work in older Gnome versions, and so, I actually didn't see them in my OS. Do you eventually know the reason why they do not work in older (here 3.32.2) Gnome versions? The behavior kinda doesn't make sense. Upon installation, what I could see were only purple and blue icons, and eventually sometimes some black, and some brown mime-types icons, but when opened in Inkscape, the purple and blue ones were actually really brown. I'm puzzled... Screenshots: https://ibb.co/RC9T3Hr | https://ibb.co/7G1kDXN | https://ibb.co/cwtcnqG | https://ibb.co/TtVBXpj
I'm afraid I can't give you an answer to that. There have been report that KDE/qt has been problems with my icon sets, but not Gnome/XFCE/Budgie before (until now). I have asked people on different boards to solve this problem, but so far no luck. My guess (this is only a guess) is there's some bugs in Inkscape because I use the latest/beta that may behave oddly.
Hi Thalic, thanks for the reply. I don't even know if you care for testing the older versions, but if you want to test your work with 'everything older', you could eventually try to install Springdale Linux (Princeton University RHEL; just remember to add Epel repository!). There you also still get the Inkscape 0.92.x. For the latest version, you can always use Flatpak and so have both versions at the same time, on the same machine.
