gtk.css unmounted devices in theme

Hi!

I wonder if someone could point me in a direction what handles unmounted/mounted devices in gtk.css for tweaking the gtk theme.
At the moment the device shows the same color regardless if the device is mounted or not.

Thanks in advance

Re: gtk.css unmounted devices in theme

I don't think you can manipulate the device icons from css.

Internally, thunar calls g_volume_get_icon (from the GIO library) to get the themed icon for the device. You can get a list of the icons that are searched for in the current theme (devices folder) by running:

gio mount -li

...and seeing something like:

themed icons:  [drive-harddisk-solidstate]  [drive-harddisk]  [drive]  [drive-harddisk-solidstate-symbolic]  [drive-harddisk-symbolic]  [drive-symbolic]
symbolic themed icons:  [drive-harddisk-solidstate-symbolic]  [drive-harddisk-symbolic]  [drive-symbolic]  [drive-harddisk-solidstate]  [drive-harddisk]  [drive]

My icon theme, Qogir, has the second one in the list so that one is used.

So all devices, mounted or not, will get the same icon. Additionally, internally thunar sets a 50% alpha value on unmounted values so to look a little dimmer:

          /* 50% translucent for unmounted volumes */
          if (shortcuts_icon_renderer->device != NULL
              && !thunar_device_is_mounted (shortcuts_icon_renderer->device))
            alpha = 0.50;
          else
            alpha = 1.00;

Interesting,
Actually everything works in Thunar, it is in xfdesktop-4.19.1 that it is not working. It is not showing 50% alpha value on unmounted devices.
And if i understand you correctly this is not a theme setting, sounds more like a bug.
Afterall it is a beta.

Ah yes, in xfdesktop 4.19 it doesn't do that. I agree, a bug report is probably best here.
