Invisible window controls (close, minimize)

[acul009]

Hi,

When I'm running the examples, the buttons to close and minimize the window are invisible.
When hovering over the correct positions, they still get highlighted and they still work.

I have not installed the cosmic DE on my device - could this be a missing theme?
If so - is there a way for applications to come with an integrated default theme?

System Specs:

OS: Garuda Linux Bird of Prey x86_64
Kernel: 6.11.6-zen1-1-zen
Resolution: 2560x1440
DE: Plasma 6.2.3
WM: kwin
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X (16) @ 4.851GHz
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti

I'm interested in using libcosmic as my ui toolkit of choice. Is that an intended use case or should I stick to vanilla iced instead?

Probably the same of #700

I'm not sure, since my button DO work. They're just invisible. It almost looks like the icons are missing.
And the

I have multi-window enabled, but I still have this issue.

Oh right. It's because libcosmic require cosmic-icon theme currently. I think it was planned to not make this a hard dependency. The problem i see is whereas the fall back should come from installed icon themes or we can just embed the cosmic ones.

personally, I'd love to have the cosmic ones embedded.

I'm coming from flutter and the convenience of just having all the mdi icons ready at your fingertips is great.

That fallback might not be required for everyone though. Maybe behind a feature flag?

Personally, i'm in favor of supporting icon themes, but just having a working solution would be great

I’d also like to have support for other icon themes in the case these apps are installed independently on other desktop environments. Maybe I will take a look and see if I can come up with a solution for this.
