While I personally would prefer consistency over all programs in what icons/symbols they use for what operation, I also understand that aesthetically some less colorful icons are more appealing, especially with programs/tools for color-centric/full objects. So seems these icons should not be removed but instead put back to use? Just, if so, these icons still need some fixing, or rather need to be redone completely anyway: These icons are used in the code with a hardcoded size of 22x22 (setIconSize(QSize(22, 22)), But the actual icon sizes of the files are smaller, seems they were done for 16x16 icon display: raiselayer: 16x16 lowerlayer: 22x18 (bigger margins, actual content like others) deletelayer: 16x16 So I would propose to still remove the existing icons raiselayer, lowerlayer, deletelayer from the repo, because they are too small if used as they are (by adding margins until 22x22 to the files) or look ugly if scaled to 22x22. Reminder: When creating your custom versions of these icons, do not forget that they need to be square (by the xdg icon spec), otherwise they will be scaled. So always pad with transparent pixels to reach a square size :) Cheers Friedrich _______________________________________________ calligra-devel mailing list calligra-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/calligra-devel
