Nemo - Coloured folderthumbnail is blurred

Thumbnail of a coloured folder is blurred

[NikoKrause]

Can you do me a little favor and reselect the color again after you changed the icon size in nemo?

Test1

1. Don't scale
2. Select folder-color
3. Scale => blurred icon
4. Select another color for that particular folder => sharp icon
5. Select another folder and select some color => sharp icon

Test2

1. Don't scale
2. Give some folders a specific color
3. Scale => all affected icons are blurred
4. Select another for a specifc folder => icon gets sharp
5. Don't scale
6. Scale => only the last icon remains sharp, the others remain blurred

Not a deal breaker or new issue in 20.1 BETA, so I'm moving it here.

The problem is, that the folder icon is set to an image (png file) with a fixed resolution, that fits best to the current view settings.

Problem is, that this happens just once: while setting the color.
The only real solution is to add SVG (scalable) folder images, as I wrote in other related issues.

That's probably the easiest solution alright. I'm not keen on Nemo doing folder-color-switcher's job everytime we refresh the view.

@clefebvre Me neither. Would there any issues if we just add the places icons as SVG to Mint-X and Mint-Y? I mean, the PNGs are generated from existing SVGs afaik.
