If you receive a large number of icons that are not visible in either light
or dark mode or have a solid background, run the \c recolordocsicons.py
Python script from the \c src/tools/icons/ directory. By default, the script
recolors icons in \c qtcreator/doc/qtcreator/images/icons. Use the
\c -docspath option to specify the path to another icon source directory.
For example, if you saved the new icons in \c {C:\iconconversions}, switch to
the \c {qtcreator\src\tools\icons} folder and enter:
\badcode
recolordocsicons.py -docspath C:\iconconversions
\endcode
To run the script, you will need to install the following tools and add them
to the PATH:
\list
\li Python 3.x (the script has been tested to work with 3.10)
\li ImageMagick
\li optipng
\endlist
Python script from the \c src/tools/icons/ directory. For options
and examples, see the \c README.md file.
