Re: Gtk-3.14.3 on Windows: icon rendering issues

[Daniel Kasak <d j kasak dk gmail com>]

Can you please explain this further? I had assumed this was the
correct way to ask for the 'new' icon, from whatever icon theme was
selected. If I have to change my behaviour, I'm quite willing to do
that. I'm still confused as to why this would work on Linux and OSX,
but not Windows, when all had the same themes installed.

Also I'm not convinced this build is working correctly WRT selecting
icon themes - as noted, changing the theme in my settings.ini has no
effect on icons that do get rendered ( and there aren't many of them
).
