Stock is a library that take the picture on the system on 3 way

First stock icon  name is known in the stock list so there is a file
that map the icon on defined known one :

access            apps/preferences-desktop-accessibility
add               actions/list-add
apply             actions/dialog-apply
archive           mimes/package-x-generic
attach            status/mail-attachment
audio             mimes/audio-x-generic
battery           devices/battery


when you type "icon:/16/access" it search for
"/usr/share/icons/theme/16x16/apps/preferences-desktop-accessibility.png"

in fact it try to use scalable first and then the true required size
and if not...the a size and stretch it

if this icon is not found on the system on all inhrited themes for
example oxygen>hicolor then it use internal stored icon.


There is also a way to use an icon not registered in the icon list for example :

picture["icon:/64/devices/scanner"]


in this way you must to specify the icon category name and the icon
name without the extention.

the real path is "/usr/share/icons/oxygen/64x64/devices/scanner.png"


I hope this help you to understand how stock work.
