After changing your Ubuntu system icon theme you may find that OpenOffice’s toolbar icons have disappeared. There’s an easy fix for this.
Launch OpenOffice and open Tool->Options. Select View from the list on the right of the options window. Open the icon theme drop down box and select Human. The icons will be restored once you close the options window.
The problem seems to be OpenOffice changing its icon theme to match the system setting, when the system setting does not work with OpenOffice.
Hi,
I got the same problem when I installed Blubuntu but when I wanted to change the view option I only got the openoffice.org theme.
Any help please ?
Never mind previou comment

Wow.. it was pretty simple to restore back my lost icons using the above procedure.
Champion – worked a treat!!!
MUCH better…
That fixed my oo. Thanks.
what about the users who use, for example, the Mist icon set? (like me!!)… there is no icon theme drop down box in my OO 2.6 and there also is no openoffice.org-style-Mist anywhere !!… Even I couldn’t make it work by setting it back to human or tango icon set (even downloading the openoffice.org-style-tango package)…
Sorry about my post, i’ve just found the drop down box, it was a bit confusing because it has no label and it’s default value is “automatic”… Sorry again
Excellent! Fixed at the first shot.
