I'm using Qt 4.8.1, and set the window icon with:
app.setWindowIcon(QIcon("/path/to/icon.svg"));
However, no matter how big the svg icon is, the icon shown in the menu bar or when using "alt-tab" in gnome is always very low resolution and "pixelized".
How can I make it render the icon in a higher resolution?
Seems like this can be only avoided when providing a desktop menu entry with a high a resolution icon.
I downloaded qtcreator to test it: When running the version from the web, the icon is bad. As soon as the installed version is run, it works, because the icon from the menu is used.

So I've done some searching around and all I can find is how to change the size one at a time (right click on file, click change icon size, drag from one corner to adjust the size). I also could only find stuff with Nautilus and one for Ubuntu. And that gets a bit annoying since the default icon size is way to big. Is there a way to set the default size for the desktop icons? I'm using Arch Linux OS with gnome and gnome extra. It took me a while to figure out how to get the icons to show up on the desktop but I think they're way to big.
This worked for me:
gsettings set org.gnome.nautilus.icon-view default-zoom-level 'small'
I have a weird issue with QT Creator. The soft is opening in full screen.
It is annoying because I don't have the bar with File, Edit, Tools etc...
How to disable this fullscreen mode ?
Thanks
You can switch between fullscreen and window mode using Ctrl+Shift+F11. Still, it's strange that the menus aren't visible, normally they are retained even in full screen mode.
can someone tell me what is the meaning of the icons in the title bar? A rocket, a plus, a star.. Im very curious.
Look at the file names of the icons. The first component describes the meaning: https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/tree/master/themes/default/titlebar
The plus is for sticky windows. These are windows which are visible on all tags (normally windows are only visible if one of their tags is selected).
The star is for ontop. These windows ignore the normal stacking order and are ontop of everything else.
The rocket is for maximized windows. These windows ignore the current layout and use all the available space.
The arrow is for floating windows. These windows also ignore the current layout, but they can be freely resized to any size.
The cross is a close button. It closes windows! ;-)
A custom keyboard layout can be installed on OSX by dropping the .keylayout file along with a .icns file into /Library/Keyboard Layouts. However, when I enable Yosemite's dark mode, the icon vanishes from the menu bar (although the area is still clickable).
This icon represents the input menu that can be enabled in the keyboard preferences. The OSX API allows one to specify an alternative icon for dark mode, but how do I specify this for a keyboard layout?
I cannot figure out how to change the title bar icon (the icon in the furthest top left corner of the application) in Adobe AIR. It is currently displaying the default 'Adobe AIR' red icon.
I have been able to change it in the system tray, however.
Does the following help?

The first link shows how to change the Taskbar Icon, the second shows the application icon I believe used on the desktop. I am going to recompile and install the application and see if it works.
Edit: Yea, the one that changes the Desktop Icon also changes the Title Bar icon. It's in the app.xml file.
