Expected behaviour

The Nextcloud icon in the Finder sidebar should take on the system accent colour when displayed in macOS 11 and above.

Actual behaviour

The icon renders in black

This is likely because the image asset is not configured as a "template".

Steps to reproduce

1. Install NextCloud on macOS 11 or above
2. Drag the NextCloud sync folder into the favourites section of the Finder sidebar

Client configuration

Client version: 20.0.12

Operating system: macOS 11.5.1

OS language: English (UK)

Installation path of client: /Applications

It’s happening on all three of my Macs on Monterey. Didn’t notice that on Big Sur because I was always in Dark Mode and the icons used to be black. Now it’s grayish.

This seems to affect a few syncing apps at the moment. Is there any work around or user fixes? I know it's purely cosmetic but it's been bothering me.

This happens in light mode as well (Monterey):

For me, the icon looks totally different respectively is wrong:

I tried uninstalling the app completely using AppCleaner (selecting everything) and reinstalled it (using installer for version 3.4.2).

Nextcloud 3.4.2
macOS 12.2

The problem disappeared for me with an update to macOS 12.3.

@fasci can you post a screenshot?
For me on macOS 12.3 the icon used in finder sidebar is still wrong:

@foss- Sure, that's how it looks for me with macOS 12.3 (21E230), and Nextcloud Desktop client, version 3.4.2.

[SuperManifolds]

Can confirm the issue has disappeared for me as well as of 12.3

macOS 12.3
Nextcloud Desktop 3.4.4git (build 9585)

Is the icon still correct for you with 3.4.4? Curious why results would differ. Tried removing folder from sidebar and re-added it but the wrong AppStore icon returned for me.

The problem was fixed with a clean install of macOS 12.3 and Nextcloud Desktop client 3.4.2.

However, with the update to version 3.4.4 the icon is wrong again, showing the App Store icon, just as with @foss-.

Oh, ok. Than I shall never update! 🙂

3.5.0RC1 shows AppStore Icon for NextCloud folder in Finder on macOS 12.3. Should this be tagged regression since briefly (3.4.2) the correct icon was used?
Maybe macOS dependent since the icon is correct with 3.5.0RC1 on macOS 10.15.7 (19H1824).

Hey folks, closing this issue since this has been resolved in macOS 12.3 and was an OS-level bug. Thanks for reporting!

@claucambra can you post a screenshot of what the icon should look like now? Still seeing the App Store icon here on macOS 12.4 with NC desktop 3.5.1.

@foss- Here's a picture:

It might seem like a fairly tech support-y answer but have you tried uninstalling/reinstalling the client?

[foss-]

Uninstalled via AppCleaner so plist and other files were removed along the app.
Reinstalled 3.5.1 and indeed icon shows as expected. 🎉
