How to fix GUI after changing DE / Setting up GUI on GNOME [Need help]

[AlexanderKoen]

Main problem

Hello. I have been using Libre Office on the KDE desktop environment and recently changed my desktop environment to GNOME. After that i have a problem with Libre Office - icons are not looking correctly on my new DE.

The main problem - icons on the toolbar are too bright and are almost practically invisible.

I already have tried reinstalling Libre Office and deleting /home/.config/libreoffice to reset my settings, but it didn’t help. What could i do to make my Libre Office look on GNOME like cleanly installed app.

Here is how Libre Office looks like in the light/dark theme:

Hi and welcome have you tried changing the icon theme by:
Tools → Options → LibreOffice → View → Icon Theme → Theme

there is a drop down menu. There you can see all the icon themes installed in your OS or user only.

KDE and GNOME come with different default icon themes since they are based on different GUI toolkits. Try out what’s there in the drop-down menu and maybe you are fine.

Also you can add icons on libre office only from the button on the right

System-wise (or user-wise, i.e., for use in your folders as well) you may add icons by finding them online (i.e., I like to use Full Icon Themes - Gnome-look.org but there are other places, maybe even on GNOME’s repo/app store). If you download any new icon themes you just put them in /home/<your-user-name>/.icons as an uncompressed folder.

Dark theme:

Additional information:

1. My LibreOffice crashes when i switch my theme from Light to Dark.
2. I have only automatic scheme

also this doesn’t look like a dark theme. the entire UI should be dark in the dark theme. like this (notice my icons are white, for dark themes). do you mean you changed the GNOME theme to be dark maybe?
