Comment 17 for bug 32921

Just thought I would add the requisite "this is not fixed under Hardy either" message. I echo others' comments that it's quite disconcerting to see your battery power in orange when you're basically half-full, or red when down to only 1/3. Red means panic, everybody's gonna die! Hurry up before your machine hibernates on you in the middle of what you were doing! Perhaps we could even have...(drum roll please)...a *fourth* colour! Something between green and orange, or even two shades of green. Just an idea. It seems like these are rather trivial graphical changes here, we just need someone to take a look at it.

Also, I believe the 100% icon is not ideal either, as to me it looks like it's not 100%, but rather 1 notch down (90%?) as there is a tiny bit of grey that appears above the green, even though there is the darker grey band that's meant to represent the top of the scale, it seems confusing to me. I think the green needs to go to the very top of the battery icon in this case.

Finally, I wish the Human theme included proper SVG icons for gnome-power-manager that scale smoothly when I resize my panel.

I changed the package to human-icon-theme as that's where the major issue really lies. If we want to have more steps for the icons, then that should be a separate g-p-m feature request.
