Resetting it to Rodent does change the contents of .config/xfce4/mcs_settings/gtk.xml, but apart from the show desktop panel plugin, none of the icons (set to xfce category icons, not iconfiles) changes appeareance. After login the icons still haven't changed appeareance. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Hard to reproduce as i don't know which files to delete to get a vanilla state with regards to icon themes. Basically I did what I already explained in the description. Actual Results: Gnome icons (with the ugly terminal, others are fine ;) appear. Expected Results: Rodent icons, maybe a bit clumsy looking but still the most consistent xfce icon theme around ;)
It could be an installation issue. Have you tried reinstalling rodent icons, or maybe the hicolor theme? It could also be some problem in Gtk. The gnome icon theme is the fallback theme for Rodent, so if it can't find a Rodent icon at the requested size, maybe gtk looks in the gnome theme. I don't think I ever heard of that before, though. Theme lookup is also affected by the XDG_DATA_DIRS variable.
I have the same problem. I selected the rodent icon theme (xfce4-icon-theme) in the user interface settings. The rodent-icons get mostly overidden by gnome-icon-theme or tango. Reinstalling of rodent did not help.
Closing this one. Doesn't look like a bug in the launcher to me. Please reopen if you still have this problems.
