Lighthouse has a new layout. Prefer the old one? Return to the old layout, and switch back any time from the link at the top of each page.

Icons look totally weird on Monterey 12.1 (mm 5864)

#2992

The switch to sf symbols seems to have broken the icons (see screenshot).

I suspect it has to do with some settings I have to make stuff larger because of my eyesight.

In Mailmate: the sidebar font is set as "Helvetica Neue, Regular, 15".

And in System Prefs:

General > Sidebar icon size > Medium
Accessibility > Display > Reduce transparency

    Do you still see this with the latest test release (r5872+)? I'm unable to reproduce it.

    If you do, could you send me the following file using “Help > Send Feedback”:

    ~/Library/Preferences/com.freron.MailMate.plist

    I found the culprit:

    % defaults read com.freron.MailMate MmMailboxImagesEnabled
0

    This makes the icons go wonky. Doing

    % defaults delete com.freron.MailMate MmMailboxImagesEnabled

    makes them work as expected. Sorry for the confusion, looks totally like user error (with a part of leftover old code I guess?).

    Thanks for the update. I'll see if I can reproduce it and make sure that this combination of settings is not allowed. (It's partly because of code having to remain active to make things work on pre-macOS 11).

    Next update will have this “fixed” which means that only the following combination will work:

    defaults write com.freron.MailMate MmMailboxImagesEnabled -bool NO
defaults write com.freron.MailMate MmSFSymbolsEnabled -bool NO

    That'll bring back some very old-style macOS-based colored icons, but this is a dying feature. It'll eventually be removed.
