Replace data type icons #349

Closed alexsb closed 7 years ago

alexsb commented 7 years ago

I find the data type icons a little confusing, especially the numerical icon looks like the sorting icon.

I'd instead go for something like this:

Or this:

We need icons for:

Labels / text - probably "T" Numerical - probably "#" Categorical - probably the three dots show above Nominal (string) - probably the three numbers shown above

The matrix icon is OK, but it could also be a matrix variant of these icons, to reflect the nested datatype

Take from http://fontawesome.io/icons/

@alexsb Where did you find the icons that you have posted above? I have looked at fontawesome and other libraries but haven't found your icons so far.

alexsb commented 7 years ago

The first set is from Kitware's Resonant: https://resonantlab.kitware.com/

Probably custom made, but I'm sure it's open source.

The second is tableau.
