Projects/Oxygen/Missing Icons

From KDE TechBase
Revision as of 08:37, 21 December 2007 by Jpetso (talk | contribs) (An icon for inserting a <hr> tag is *definitely* *not* a general purpose icon. Really. Also, adapt its name, insert-horizontal-rule makes a much better appearance.)

The page will help Oxygen team to track and produce icons that are currently missing in KDE4. Additionally it will help developers to make requests for icons that they need for KDE4 related projects.

Instructions to fill out the request

  • This page, being a wiki, obviously does not validate your request. Please take care when providing information about the icons. Note that this page is mainly for the team to know where is mostly needed the work, we'll do our best to fullfill your requests for 4.0 but however we can't guarantee that. =)
  • When providing icon names please try to make them compatible with the actual naming scheme.
  • Please provide clear but short descriptions about the icons, it needs to help the artists in imagining a good metaphore to make your icon. This point is extremely important. You may obviously also link your description if it's going to be lengthy. This will help us to manage icon requests, and check if there are any possible duplicates. The most descriptive you are, the best it is for us.
  • Screenshots are sometimes a better way to easily show the usage of the icon. Provide metaphores when possible this will help the artist to visualize our reqest faster and give a better understanding of the reqest.
  • As someone already noted, this is not the right page to complain or make suggestions about existing icon, this is just to know the remaining work.
  • Please sort by module/application/priority

Missing Icons Table

General purpose icons

For icons like the folder, or the desktop.

Icon Name Description / Where can be found? Done? Assigned To
actions/transform-scale (ArtLibreSet) an icon for an image resize action. In progress (See discussion page) dmiller
actions/transform-move (ArtLibreSet) move action [[1]] In progress (will be copyied from the cursor theme) ruphy
mimetypes/application-javascript Icon for *.js (application/javascript) files just like we have them for e.g. Python and Ruby. Done davigno
mimetypes/application-x-php Icon for *.php (application/x-php). Done davigno
mimetypes/application-x-chm Icon for *.chm (application/x-chm). No
actions/help-hint KStandardAction for "Tip of the Day", for example seen in the help menu of KMail [jpetso says: I think it would be appropriate to have the same metaphor for this and the games-hint icon (which should be named help-hint-game anyways)] No davigno
status/object-locked (ArtLibreSet) icon to show that an item or ui element is locked and will not move or disappear, such as a toolbar in a fullscreen window Done (copied from actions/document-encrypt)
status/object-unlocked (ArtLibreSet) icon to show that an item or ui element is unlocked and will move or disappear, such as a toolbar in a fullscreen window Done (copied from actions/document-decrypt)
apps/preferences-plugin icon to show that there are plugins to enable, for example in a configuration dialog No davigno
actions/edit-select-all An icon for the "select all" action. Used in Parley and Ark, at least. Also specified in the naming spec, so... we should really have that one. Done davigno
actions/format-list-ordered icon for indicating the creation of an ordered i.e. numbered list. Qt rich-text classes mean this will probably be used more often Done dmiller
actions/format-list-unordered icon for indicating the creation of an unordered i.e. bulleted list. Qt rich-text classes mean this will probably be used more often Done dmiller
actions/view-sort-descending An icon for sorting lists in descending order (for example, from A-Z, 1-100, etc.). Used in KAddressBook for the "Show Jump Bar", but apart from that it's also specified in the naming spec. So, rather important. No
actions/view-sort-ascending An icon for sorting lists in ascending order (for example, from Z-A, 100-1, etc.). Not currently used as far as I know, but should be easy to do once the corresponding view-sort-descending icon has been drawn. Also specified in the naming spec. No
actions/object-flip-horizontal (naming spec) icon for flipping an image or object in a drawing/graphics program No
actions/object-flip-vertical (naming spec) icon for flipping an image or object in a drawing/graphics program No
media-optical-video icon for DVDs and video CDs, from HalDevice::icon No

mimetypes/text-rtf
icon for rtf documents Done (copied from text-enriched) jpetso

kdepim kmail actions/mail-message-new-list Creates a new message, which will have the mailing list of the current folder as the recepient. Can be found in the context menu of a folder in KMail, but only after activating "Folder->Mailing List Management". [jpetso says: low priority, mail-message-new already exists as fallback.] No
kdepim kmail actions/mail-reply-custom Reply to the currently selected message with a custom (user-created) template message. Found in the "Message->Reply Special" menu entry in KMail. [jpetso says: low priority, mail-reply already exists as fallback.] No
kdepim kmail actions/mail-reply-all-custom Reply to the currently selected message with a custom (user-created) template message, and send the message to every addressee (All which are in To, From and CC headers). Found in the "Message->Reply Special" menu entry in KMail. [jpetso says: low priority, mail-reply-all already exists as fallback.] No
kdepim kmail actions/mail-forward-custom Forward the currently selected message, using a custom (user-created) template message. Found in the "Message->Forward" menu entry in KMail. [jpetso says: low priority, mail-forward already exists as fallback.] No

Can be found in the "File" menu of KMail. Done, use "mail-send-via" for this (which falls back to the existing "mail-send"). jpetso says: I can't think of *any* reason that would warrant a different icon than "mail-send" for this action. If there is a compelling case for a seperate icon, please state it here and rename the icon to mail-send-via.

kdepim korganizer actions/task-new The icon for the "New Todo" action. No
kdepim korganizer actions/journal-new The icon for the "New Journal" action. I guess view-pim-journal overlayed with the plus icon should do. No

kdenetwork krdc krdc-viewonly Toggles the remote view viewonly / view-control mode. Viewonly means, that the remote desktop shows all updates, but the client does not send actions back to the server. At the moment the kgpg-sign-kgpg is used there. --Uwolfer 23:11, 28 October 2007 (CET) No
kdenetwork kget status/network-connecting Shown while trying to connect to a server. --Uwolfer 21:05, 29 October 2007 (CET) No
kdenetwork kopete status/user-online Icon representing an IM contact in an online state. Used full size in the contact list, and as overlay for user and protocol icons. As every contact gets one of those status icons and overlays are pretty tiny, this should be rather simple - for the online icon, we might standardize on simple green circle which Pidgin and Adium are using. Done davigno
kdenetwork kopete status/user-away Icon representing an IM contact in an away state. Used full size in the contact list, and as overlay for user and protocol icons. As every contact gets one of those status icons and overlays are pretty tiny, this should be rather simple - for the away icon, the Kopete developers would prefer a 1/4 dark clock. Done davigno
kdenetwork kopete status/user-away-extended Icon representing an IM contact in an extended away state. Used full size in the contact list, and as overlay for user and protocol icons. As every contact gets one of those status icons and overlays are pretty tiny, this should be rather simple - for the extended away icon, the Kopete developers would prefer a 3/4 dark clock. Done davigno
kdenetwork kopete status/user-busy Icon representing an IM contact in a busy state. Used full size in the contact list, and as overlay for user and protocol icons. As every contact gets one of those status icons and overlays are pretty tiny, this should be rather simple - for the offline icon, the Kopete icons would prefer a "one way" sign... in fact, the one inside printer-error would probably be perfect for this purpose. Only covering the whole canvas in the smaller versions probably, but we should use that one. Done davigno
kdenetwork kopete status/user-offline Icon representing the user in an unknown state. Used full size in the contact list, and as overlay for user and protocol icons. As every contact gets one of those status icons and overlays are pretty tiny, this should be rather simple - for the unknown state icon, there's no preference for a specific look, but should probably be gray. Pidgin uses a gray "X" icon very similar to our own "window-close". Done davigno
kdenetwork kopete apps/im-aim Icon for the AIM instant messaging protocol No johann_ol
kdenetwork kopete apps/im-icq Icon for the ICQ instant messaging protocol No johann_ol
kdenetwork kopete apps/im-jabber Icon for the XMPP/Jabber instant messaging protocol No johann_ol

kdenetwork kopete apps/preferences-text-highlighting Configuring text highlighting - icon exists but only in a low resolution No davigno
kdenetwork kopete status/kopete-dock-flashing icon flashed in system tray when new messages are received No davigno
kdenetwork kopete actions/view-statistics A general icons for a statistics view, used in Kopete for the statistics plugin. KTorrent also has a (download) statistics plugin that would use such an icon, at least it does in its 3.x version. Done pinheiro

Other 3rd party Application Icons

For all the other applications

Application Icon Name Description / Where can be found? Done? Assigned To
KSystemlog KSystemLog icon App icon - Made by a non-graphic designer developer ;-) Done (utilites-log-viewer) dmiller
Tagua apps/tagua Tagua logo Done dmiller
Tagua tagua-movelist toggle movelist Done - use actions/history
Amarok apps/amarok

App icon. Needs Oxygen colors, we don't really want to change design.

No
Amarok status/media-track-repeat An icon for the "repeat the current track" state. No
KPlayer, Amarok status/media-playlist-repeat

Option to loop through the current playlist. See screenshot, it's the next-to-last button in the second row.

KPlayer, Amarok status/media-playlist-shuffle

Option to shuffle the current playlist. See screenshot, it's the last button in the second row.

Kind of... copied the "dice-roll" icon to that location
KPlayer status/audio-volume-muted

This icon already exists in Oxygen, but in only one size, 22x22 I believe. Would like to have a scalable version. [note from jpetso: please also a scalable version for the other audio-volume-* icons]

No
KPlayer, Dragon Player video-contrast

Button that pops up the slider that lets you change the video contrast. See screenshot, it's the fourth-to-last button in the first row.

KPlayer, Dragon Player video-brightness

Button that pops up the slider that lets you change the video brightness. See screenshot, it's the third-to-last button in the first row.

No
Firefox apps/firefox Firefox logo No
GIMP apps/gimp GIMP logo No
kopete-cryptography badsignature An icon like the 'signature' icon, but it indicates that a digital signature cannot be verified. See websvn for a quick version that I made. This icon is intended to be displayed at 16x16, so I think the red color alone isn't enough to made it's intention quickly obvious, it should have more distinction from 'siganture'. No
ktorrent start-all and stop-all For starting and stopping torrents we want to use media-playback-start and media-playback-stop, so we would like some matching icons to start and stop all torrents. No
ktorrent apps/preferences-system-network-ip-filter-ktorrent Icon for KTorrent's IP Filter plugin. This is a blocklist for bad peers. No
ktorrent apps/preferences-plugin-scan-folder-ktorrent Icon for KTorrent's folder scanner plugin. This plugin monitors directories for torrent files, and when a new one is detected, it is loaded into ktorrent. No
ktorrent apps/preferences-system-network-upnp-ktorrent Icon for KTorrent's UPnP plugin. No
ktorrent apps/preferences-system-network-discovery Icon for KTorrent's zeroconf (DNSSD) plugin, also used by the "Network Discovery" page in the System Settings (which makes for the slightly different icon name). No

Misc Icon Requests

Update:Thanks Djmdave, for moving this here. Now the KWrite icon is totally missing. See: http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/KDE/kdebase/runtime/pics/oxygen/128x128/apps/kwrite.png?view=markup and other corresponding directories (scalable 64x64 etc). My request for two distinct icons for Kate and KWrite stands. Please see bug for more details and discussion.

  • Partly fixed in svn commit r733637 (fabo), missing all unmount icons and some others (MO Device and ZIP Device) used in *.desktop files:
