Icon pack mode switching query

dunhill · 02-26-2026, 07:51 PM

I have a question. I'm noticing that when I switch from light to dark mode, the icons in the pack don't change. Even though the file is named clear_left-dark.png or clear_left-light.png, it used to work if they were named clear_left-for-dark-theme.png or clear_left-for-light-theme.png. Is there a change to this?

I am confused are you saying it does not work with for-dark-theme and for-light-theme? As far as I know that still works and has always been the case, see https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/cus...me-for-calibre

Everything returned to normal after updating calibre to the latest version.
