The icon selection screen looks like this.
Click on 24px General
Click on 24px Browser
The download & install screen is going to take a little longer.

My preview image is like placing some typical icons in a rectangle. It looks like the following.

Ah yes much simpler and easier to achieve. I reformulated my preview images to follow your guidelines came up with a 256 x 160px size preview. What do you think, is that a good size?
Those icon selection screenshots looks cool too. I see now that most icons got an unintended white backdrop, that was not intentional, needs cleanup.
I've created a new pull request with updated icons, tweaked a few of the existing ones for better appearance, and removed the white background for full transparency. Also added a new matching dark icon pack for night modes.
Let me know what you think, feel free to tell if you think any icons need adjustments or are not clear. Also let me know if it is worth it making a rainbow-selection of matching colored icon packs based on the current as illustrated above.
I think the preview size you suggested is good, but please consider it again when you have an installation page.
As I found out as I was building it, the following part of config.json is not currently in use and can be omitted.
"icons": {
"general": {
"size": 64,
"max": 43
},
"browser": {
"size": 64,
"max": 12
},
"shell32": {
"size": 64,
"max": 0
}

I can easily adjust once you get the gallery up and running, and adapt to whatever size is required.

Will remove on next update, thanks
I have a few requests. I want preview.png to be lowercase. Add the id to config.json. The id is the same as the folder name. Tablacus_Dark etc.

Hey the new UI looks great, didn't expect to see it working in such short notice, great work. I've updated the icon packs as requested, preview.png is now lower case, added id to config.json
@tablacus I've made a few additions and changes to the icon pack.
misc
category for a few upcoming changes, it'd be more convenient to have readable names, is this possible?shell32/41.png
(before it was general/43.png
), can you update in the UI for toolbar toggle tree button? That matches better with the original Microsoft designs.general/12.png
has been moved to shell32/295.png
or misc/new_tab.png
to better match Microsoft. Will this cause trouble, can you update?shell32/71.png
for Options/Settings icon, so you can use it for the addon Options button and elsewhere.shell32/289.png
for tags (I think I've seen it used somewhere in the UI) and shell32/304.png
for future use.Regards,
Tree icon seems to be working well, not sure if you are using the one from misc already.
The dark preview is still using the old image, but github was stubbornly still showing the older one despite me uploading several times. I've made a pull request with an updated image, not sure it made it through this release yet.
The New Tab icon for the Simple Toolbar addon needs updating to show shell32/295.png
or misc/new_tab.png
, it is currently showing an icon for "Browse"
There is now an icon at shell32/289.png
for the Label Button addon if you wish.
Other than tah seems to be working well. Thanks for the hardwork
- please try to install Tablacus Explorer 20.9.23.
Didn't get what you meant yesterday, but yes custom icons with alphanumeric names seem to be working correctly.
Successfully tested today by adding a button with a custom icon to the toolbar.
Now the only needed adjustments now are changing:
shell32/295.png
or misc/new_tab.png
shell32/41.png
shell32/289.png
for the Label Button addon.Thanks
Hey @tablacus so I started working on the first stub of what I hope will become the future default theme.
Default icon pack for light colors.![Preview](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/8735426/93727059-4d20cd80-fbb1-11ea-9098-f205d451ce64.png)
Icons can be easily colored differently for different UI themes, like a dark colored/night mode.

I though about the preview images further and didn't consider including a screenshot of the window before. There are 640 x 400 pixels, and seem adequate, what do you think?
It doesn't include all icons from the Microsoft libraries, some I don't think are ever used in TE, others I couldn't figure out what they meant. There are the ones I designed, some (like Toggle Tree and New Tab)were adapted for TE specific use, if more are needed let me know.
The old thread can be closed I think, discussion may continue here on a per icon pack or issue basis.
Let me know what you think and what needs changes.
