* suggesting this for inclusion into the icon naming specification
** not in the spec, but let's keep it out of there anyways,
it's not really suited to be a standard icon
*** badly named in the spec imho, let's try to get this changed
To do for Oxygen
Icons that are in the spec, but not yet in Oxygen's actions/ (after renaming) so they need to be added. Descriptions taken from the specification
call-start The icon used for initiating or accepting a call. Should be similar to the standard cellular call pickup icon, a green handset with ear and mouth pieces facing upward. (Says the spec... I think we can be more flexible.) call-stop The icon used for stopping a current call. Should be similar to the standard cellular call hangup icon, a red handset with ear and mouth pieces facing downward. (Says the spec... I think we can be more flexible.) document-send The icon for the send action. Should be an arrow pointing up and away from a hard disk. (Says the spec... I think we can be more flexible.) document-page-setup The icon for the page setup action of a document editor. edit-find-replace The icon for the find and replace action. help-faq The icon for the FAQ item in the Help menu. (Editor's note: not used in KDE either, at the moment.) insert-object The icon for the insert object action of an application. mail-send-receive The icon for the send and receive action of an electronic mail application. system-software-install The icon used for the desktop's software installer application.
Summary of the suggested changes and additions
The ones marked with * and should therefore go into the icon naming specification, presented here in a shorter list for a better overview. Including a suggested short description text like needed for inclusion in the spec.
archive-extract The icon used for the action that extracts files and directories from an archive. archive-insert The icon used for the action that inserts files and directories into an archive. archive-remove The icon used for the action that removes files and directories from an archive. document-export The icon used for the action that saves all or part of the current document, often in a format that cannot be opened again with this application. document-import The icon used for the action that adds the contents of external files to the current document. document-preview The icon used for previewing a document in read-only mode. document-print-preview Should probably be document-preview-print, so that there's a possibility of having document-preview (which is a better fallback anyways than document-print). help-contextual The icon for the contextual help / "What's this" icon in the Help menu. insert-table The icon for the insert table action of an application. mail-receive The icon for the receive action of an electronic mail application. system-switch-user The icon used for the "Switch User" item in the desktop's panel application. tab-detach The icon used for the "Detach Tab" action. tab-duplicate The icon used for the "Duplicate Tab" action. tab-move-left The icon for the menu action "Window -> Move Tab Left" tab-move-right The icon for the menu action "Window -> Move Tab Right" tab-new The icon used for the "New Tab" action. tab-close The icon used for the "Close Tab" action. tab-close-other The icon used for the "Close Other Tabs" action. system-suspend The icon used for the "Suspend Computer" action. zoom-fit-height The icon used for the "Zoom to Height" item in the application's "View" menu. zoom-fit-width The icon used for the "Zoom to Width" item in the application's "View" menu.
