Hi all,
I'm the maintainer of Kronometer: http://www.aelog.org/kronometer/
Kronometer is a simple stopwatch application for KDE4, part of Extragear Utils. The latest version is 1.6 and probably it will be the last KDE4 release.
The port to KF5 is ready, but this does not make Kronometer a proper "Breeze app".

Application Icon
Kronometer would need a proper Breeze icon. Consider this one an official icon request. :)
I created the old icon using Krita, starting from a random Googled picture (basically I just changed the colors).
I don't mind if the new icon will be completely different.

Action Icons
Kronometer would need proper action icons. Currently Kronometer provides the following actions with the following icons:

1. Start/Resume action: to start the stopwatch and resume it from pause. The icon is player-time from the Oxygen theme.
2. Pause action: to pause a running stopwatch. The icon is media-playback-pause from the Oxygen theme.
3. Reset action: to reset to zero a running or paused stopwatch. The icon is edit-clear-history from the Oxygen theme.
4. Lap action: to create a "lap" by freezing the stopwatch time. The icon is chronometer from the Oxygen theme.

It would be awesome to have Breeze icons specifically created for these actions (assuming they don't yet exist), instead of using icons which are supposed to mean something else.

UI review/redesign
Kronometer UI is actually kind of weird, I know. It would be really glad if someone could do a UI review of the current interface and/or create a mockup for a new, different, UI.

Thanks in advance to anyone willing to contribute or simply comment!

You can (and should) make your request here for the icon: https://github.com/NitruxSA/plasma-next-icons/issues - Also note in the wiki: https://github.com/NitruxSA/plasma-next ... -in-Breeze - how to use the Breeze icons, because from what I can see your action icons are not 22 px. And how to name the icons that you will be using: https://github.com/NitruxSA/plasma-next ... -in-Breeze - the icons you used are already in the theme, however, do note that naming should be indicative of what the action is for.

Done: https://github.com/NitruxSA/plasma-next-icons/issues/96

Yes, those icons are currently not 22 px, they need to be fixed.
