Ugly icons (17.4) - can they be changed?

redwire
redwire over 5 years ago

First time to fire up 17.4 and what the heck?  I can not believe or understand the need to change the icons.  I've got eye-muscle memory and literally am hunting for my icons.

Has anyone else found the new look disturbing?  Is there a way to change it?

Thanks

Bill

    Have to agree, and the dark grey background, really? Change for the better is sometimes hard to adapt to but there is a reward, this just seems to be change for changes sake. If it doesn't add to the experince, feature set or users productivity what's the point?

    Looks like 17.4. The point being made by the OP and agreed by me (and others) was the change to the look of 17.4 compared what we have come to know and love with 17.2. I'm sure the change was made for valid reasons, ther're just not obvious :-)
