1. completely uninstall your current LibreOffice from Application center.
2. download tar.xz from http://donate.libreoffice.org/home/dl/deb-x86_64/5.2.2/en-US/LibreOffice_5.2.2_Linux_x86-64_deb.tar.gz
3. extract all the deb files into a folder
4. navigate to folder where deb files were extracted
5. right click + open in terminal
6. run this:
Code:
sudo dpkg -i *.deb

Btw, the icon set for each app is much nicer on the panel.

that's good. Probably because it reset your defaults where your theme setting had changed it. Just a warning, if you change theme your icon will probably change again too Smile

Actually, they do stay "pretty" even after switching around a few themes.

interesting. The newest version must have started adding persistent icons. I don't know because I am using WPS.
