Images of letters with arrows,and binocular
Text was missing. For Increase/Decrease Font Size: Icon of capital letter "A" with arrow up for "Increase" and small letter with arrow down for "Decrease". Like in Nvu. And/or Icon of binoculars for find, like in Adobe Acrobat Reader. These icons have merit. I note that the icons for "Enlarge Font" and "Shrink Font" would need to have new names since the icons: "viewmag+" and "viewmag-" are probably used for other things as well. This would mean that the Konqueror code would need to be changed as well. So, I suggest that they be called: view_font+ view_font- view_search I also note that the first two need a little work. Look at them at high magnification, or did you have sub-pixel AA turned on when you made the screen shot? Please post the actual icons to kde-artists@mail.kde.org If you are referring to pictures I posted, they are not actual images to be included in KDE. They are just here to show what I meant. The new default artwork (oxygen) for KDE4 implements this graphics. Shouldn't this report be closed? True, Oxygen uses a binocular for "Search" and magnifier glasses for "Zoom" actions. That would satisfy this request. Good catch, FiNeX! This has only been partially fixed. Reopening, in order to be able to assign to the Konqueror devs. The icon theme part is fine, it's now up to the Konqueror devs to use the appropriate icons. Reassigning to the Konqueror devs. KDE 4 icon themes, including Oxygen, provide icons named format-font-size-less and format-font-size-more. Those should be used for the "increase/decrease font sizes" actions, while real "zoom in"/"zoom out" actions (zooming images as well as fonts) should use the zoom-in and zoom-out icons. I can fix this.

Screen Shot showing the problem with Oxygen icons.
The original problem still exists. It is very difficult to determine which is which with the magnifying glass icons.
In kde 4.2.4 the icons have changes compare to the icons in #15. Now it is more clear what they are. Sugestion that the bug is closed unless other people do not agree I agree with Jonas. (In reply to comment #16) > In kde 4.2.4 the icons have changes compare to the icons in #15. Sorry to say that this is not true. Created attachment 36197 [details] Current Oxygen magnifying glass icons 16x16 While it is true that the icon for search has been changed and the new icons have been created for enlarge and shrink font, the fact is that the magnifying glass icons have not changed. This attachments shows that they are exactly the same as in Comment #15. So, although improvements have been made, this bug which is about the "Magnifying Glass" icons has not been fix and it should be reopened. |
