## Known Issues

- If the Python hid-parser package is not available Solaar will not recognize some devices.
|
- Solaar expects that it has exclusive control over settings that are not ignored.
|
||||||
Use pip to install hid-parser.
|
Running other programs that modify these settings, such as logiops,
|
||||||
|
will likely result in unexpected device behavior.
|
||||||
- If some icons appear broken in the application, make sure you've properly
|
|
||||||
configured the Gtk theme and icon theme in your control panel.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Solaar normally uses icon names for its icons, which in some system tray implementatations
|
|
||||||
results in missing or wrong-sized icons.
|
|
||||||
The `--tray-icon-size` option forces Solaar to use icon files of appropriate size
|
|
||||||
for tray icons instead, which produces better results in some system tray implementatations.
|
|
||||||
To use icon files close to 32 pixels in size use `--tray-icon-size=32`.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- The icon in the system tray can show up as 'black on black' in dark
|
|
||||||
themes or as non-symbolic when the theme uses symbolic icons. This is due to problems
|
|
||||||
in some system tray implementations. Changing to a different theme may help.
|
|
||||||
The `--battery-icons=symbolic` option can be used to force symbolic icons.
