Description (last modified by Don-vip)

Since we have an icon scaling on hidpi screens now (ticket:9995#comment:110) it would be nice to transform all icons to svg. Preset icons are already all svg (#13357)

Here are the current numbers: 60 svg icons and 270 png icons. This statistic excludes the folders images/presets, images/icons (only potlatch icons), our logo (which exists as png versions additionally to svg) and two special cases.

svg:

png:

I think we could ask the osm community for help on this subject.

There are two possibilities:

  • transform the 270 png to svg
  • create a whole new icon set with an consistent look

For the second, there was already such an (not fully complete) dataset, see JOSM themes:





1 or 2 years ago I tried these themes and they looked pretty nice. If we could use this as base there would be less than 270 to be transformed.

For the second, there was already such an (not fully complete) dataset, see JOSM themes. Sadly the links and screenshoots in the forum are no longer available. Maybe we could recover them.

I remember very well. Felis was one of the finalists for the LogoContest and he almost won. It was really a hard thing to choose between the two final designs. I love what he did, too bad we can't have two logos :D

I just sent him an e-mail to let it know about this ticket.

FYI, as long as Dropbox has changed sharing mechanics, theme files are now available at:

And I'm searching for the source files now.

Our current icons are partly based on the Tango icon theme, which has an svg set. See also GNOME set (based on Tango) with icons for download, delete and others.

Wow, it's pretty good! I like the black-red color scheme.
