Description Nate Graham 2018-02-11 20:14:00 UTC

In multiple recent circumstances, we've found ourselves wanting a "gear" icon that we can put on Tools dropdown menus:
- https://phabricator.kde.org/D10297
- https://phabricator.kde.org/D10295

Basically we want this icon: https://i.imgur.com/FJOxfJL.png
... Or a suitably Breeze-ey version of it

Maybe it could be named more-tools or tools-action or something like that.

I like this proposal. It brings KDE imagery home for users. It is also now a very common icon that represents settings, preferences, options, etc. +1

Comment 2 Nate Graham 2019-01-18 16:11:42 UTC

Change of plans. We discussed this in the VDG room today and decided that a gear might confuse people, since it's commonly used for "Configure/options/settings/preferences/etc" on other platforms. We want something that communicates that it holds tools instead. So we decided that this should actually be a toolbox, kind of like one of these:
