Bug ID: 379885
Summary: Breeze icon for "Multimedia" in systemsettings is
confusing for new users
Product: Breeze
Version: 5.9.5
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: Icons
Assignee: visual-des...@kde.org
Reporter: ber...@codewiz.org
CC: kain...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
I recently observed a new KDE user browse through the main System Settings
window in search for the sound configuration KCM and miss the Multimedia icon
in the Hardware pane because "this one looked like a monitor, but I wanted to
configure sound so I was looking for a speaker".
The Oxygen version of this icon is a video clap with a musical note, which
might have been easier to associate with "sound controls".
I personally think a speaker icon would be more recognizable. This is what both
MacOS and Windows use. Cinnamon also has a speaker, and Gnome shows a volume
knob.
I filed a separate bug on systemsettings to track renaming Multimedia to "Sound
and Video" or splitting it into two separate icons (#379822).
