Summary

StatusNotifier hosts (Omarchy's bar, waybar, and most other SNI trays) prefer IconName over IconPixmap. The service advertised preferences-system-power, so those hosts rendered the theme's yellow power glyph and ignored the QPainter bolt that is already tinted per profile.

Leave IconName empty. Hosts then use IconPixmap, and the tray icon changes color with the active mode (performance / balanced / silent / max / lowpower).

KDE Plasma still uses the classic QSystemTrayIcon path and is unchanged. notify-send still uses -i preferences-system-power for notification popups only.

Tested

  • Omarchy / Hyprland SNI tray: icon is the painted bolt and follows MODE_COLORS
  • Before: always the theme yellow power icon, regardless of mode

Docs

  • README: Hyprland / Omarchy section + tray bullet
  • CONTEXT.md: tray icon note
## Summary StatusNotifier hosts (Omarchy's bar, waybar, and most other SNI trays) prefer `IconName` over `IconPixmap`. The service advertised `preferences-system-power`, so those hosts rendered the theme's yellow power glyph and ignored the QPainter bolt that is already tinted per profile. Leave `IconName` empty. Hosts then use `IconPixmap`, and the tray icon changes color with the active mode (performance / balanced / silent / max / lowpower). KDE Plasma still uses the classic `QSystemTrayIcon` path and is unchanged. `notify-send` still uses `-i preferences-system-power` for notification popups only. ## Tested - Omarchy / Hyprland SNI tray: icon is the painted bolt and follows `MODE_COLORS` - Before: always the theme yellow power icon, regardless of mode ## Docs - README: Hyprland / Omarchy section + tray bullet - CONTEXT.md: tray icon note 
SNI hosts prefer IconName over IconPixmap. Advertising
preferences-system-power made Omarchy/waybar render a fixed yellow
theme glyph and ignore make_pixmap() mode colors.
