Icon Request: fa-bluetooth-slash #14772

Open mainrs opened 5 years ago

Similar to the already included fa-wifi-slash, a similar icon for Bluetooth would be nice to have.

Hi!

Thanks for being part of the Font Awesome Community.

Bluetooth is available as a brand, and slashing a brand is something that is not desirable. I don't know if this request is legit but I'm leaving it open the same.

Anyway, you can achieve any *-slash icon with the power transforms, masking, and layering feature of the SVG Framework.

It actually is a legit request and I didn't know that it is not allowed or desired to slash through them. Does this apply to the other bluetooth icon aswell?

Edit: Thanks for showing me how to use the layering "framework". Sadly in my scenario I can't really use it as I am using the font on my system and wanted to create a statusbar icon that I can use to show the Bluetooth status of my laptop with.

This is a commonly used icon, embedded and used even in operating systems and other icon libraries:

And here a screenshot of the macos control panel: image

I would greatly appreciate you adding this icon to the collection
