Wrong tray icon color for xfce4-power-manager

[aacebedo]

Distribution: Endeavour OS (arch based)
Desktop environment: Xfce + i3
Installing method: aur/vimix-gtk-themes-git r358.8b76023-1
App name: xfce4-power-manager 4.16.0

I use the vimix-dark-laptop-ruby theme and the PapirusDark theme.
The icon of the tray despite being white on my disk is recolored to a dark color, making it invisible.
I checked with strace xfce4-power-manager that the icon loaded is correct /usr/share/icons/Papirus-Dark/symbolic/status/battery-level-80-symbolic.svg but it is displayed in a dark color instead of white:

The only way to fix this is to add
* {color:#FFFFFF;} to ~/.local/gtk-3.0/gtk.css
however it will have an impact on other places than this specific icon.
Other tray icons do not seem impacted.
Is there another way to solve this ?

@aacebedo have you found any better solution yet?

[aacebedo]

Nope. I switched to sway and nixos since and I use another bar so did not see the issue again.

I’m on awesome wm and your solution does fix the issue but then it affects my thunderbird message pane and may be some other app who knows.

Googling for hours to get the right css name just for xfce4-power-manager icon is not helping. In some places people suggested
#xfce4-power-manager-plugin image {}

That is also not working.

Thanks for your reply anyway.
