How come no icons appear in Linux NoScript versions?

I noticed when running NoScript on Windows that icons show in the context menu but there are no icons in Ubuntu. Is this a bug? Is there a way to get the icons to appear?

Looks like Firefox force icons to be invisible if the underlying OS says it prefers so.
Exceptions are made for bookmark icons only, as far as I can see.

Needless to say, this seriously impairs NoScript usability, therefore it deserves a work-around.
Fixed in latest development build, thanks.

I'm also having this problem where the NoScript Icon that appears in Toolbars > Customize will not display a "Small Size." If I select Use Small Icons all icons shrink except for the NoScript icon, it remains big. It ends up distorting the height of the navigation bar to accommodate its bigger-than-other icons size.

Are you using latest development build?

I'm using 2.0.9.6.

Have you already fixed the icon size issue in the latest dev build?

Yes, it's in the changelog.

Giorgio, I've discovered the no icons problem is NOT a bug within NoScript. Instead it is a result of a setting that users have control over within Ubuntu. It can be found in gconf-editor > desktop > gnome > interface > menus_have_icons. While investigating something else I discovered that this setting exists and once I enabled it to show icons NoScript Icons began showing.

Sorry for leading you astray into thinking this was a NoScript bug. I really appreciate your feedback and responsiveness to my post though

Thanks again Giorgio
