Multiple Icons for Single App. (Based on System Theme)

[BaruaAtish]

Hello, I want to help contribute to Arcticons by submitting icons I create for an app called "DualWallpaper". The issue is, DualWallpaper changes icons based on system theme. I have created icons for both versions but do not know how to name and add them to the others folder and how to list them in the xml. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Hmm do they have different appfilter activities?

I don't think so, this is the info I got from the last time I made a request for this, the action was the same back then too:

<!-- DualWallpaper -->
<item component="ComponentInfo{de.dlyt.yanndroid.dualwallpaper/de.dlyt.yanndroid.dualwallpaper.ui.activity.MainActivity}" drawable="dualwallpaper"/>

Have you tried getting it with Icon Request? https://github.com/Kaiserdragon2/IconRequest/releases

Maybe it's different when you change the mode; otherwise, automatic switching isn't possible.

We can still add both tho!

I tried and it showed the same thing.

de.dlyt.yanndroid.dualwallpaper
de.dlyt.yanndroid.dualwallpaper.ui.activity.MainActivity

I'm going to try using it both in light and dark mode to see if it makes a difference then sometime today, just to make sure.

Edit: Heres the git to the app if it helps find something I don't know about

I have tested it out and it is possible to do as you can see with the following debug apk.
Debug-apk.zip
But the current setup doesn't allow for this kind of build and there need to be some file manually moved and renamed.
I don't know if it is worth to change the script to allow for such builds.

Slightly off topic but with more apps jumping onto the custom Icon (behind a paywall) train, how are you/we going to move forward ?

• Cover every (Icon assigned)Activity with the same default Icon from the host app to avoid "breakage/app not covered/please fix!"
• Leave them be for now and let them flood the Icon Request backlog
• Cover them with the default Icon and replace on demand as individual requests/contributions come in
• Don't bother until things get out of control

As far as I know, this is only possible when the dev uses different activities for the icons. If not, it's not possible for the icon pack to switch between icons.
