Description gansm 2004-05-14 07:34:33 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.2)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

The magnifying glass icons "actions/viewmag+.png" and "actions/viewmag-.png" must be improved.

If I look at this icons I become at first the focus of attention to the magnifying glass.
But to understand the function of this icon, I must look under the glass.

It would be better if the "+" and the "-" could be placed into the magnifying glass like nautilus or acrobat reader does it.

You can see the difference in this two screenshots:

Would these be satisfactory for KDEClassic:

If so, I will make the 48x48 and try the same idea with the Crystal icons.

Yes, this is better.

The "find icon" looks very nice!

I am pleased to see this in crystal style.

Unable to follow the URLs but from the description it sounds like this should be fixed in the Oxygen icon set (the +/- appearing in the magnifying glass)

Yep. The only remaining issue is that there are no 64x64 zoom icons.
