[Idea] New icons for modules or more...

[varlesh]

Your icons have different style, i'm create new. Maybe you like that? :) Now available 32px icons for modules on SVG.

[varlesh]

All, preview:

[zaps166]

Do you want to add these icons to QMPlay2? If yes - I'll create icon scheme feature for QMPlay2 (later). For this I need to attach all icons in SVG and its name (also author name in text file).

[varlesh]

Yes, if you want and like this icons. Do you agree? Need other icons - main logo, and actions icons (i think this icons used on Windows only, but i can create this icons for better looking one style if you need)?

[varlesh]

For example, main logo:

[zaps166]

Current main logo is OK for me (The only icon which I've done (+ the blue next/prev icons). It was about 8 years ago for QMPlay1) :smiley:

You can create the new QMPlay2 icon style which can be chosen in settings. I'll also think about extending the current default icons, but they are hicolor + original logos like OpenGL or X11...

[zaps166]

About the new icons:

• maybe Modplug module should illustrate that this is for music (maybe something associated with old games, Amiga, DOS, trackers. etc.)?
• Inputs module is more like audio input rather than keyboard/mouse, maybe it should have jack or chinch or something similar?
• Why XVideo icon looks like Windows (DirectX) ? :smiley:

[varlesh]

Ok, i'm create git-repo and add new style icons. You can add this style later on player and issues. I think this will be comfortable for you and me.

[zaps166]

OK, so I'll use your icons if the new feature will be available :) You can paste link to your repo here. Thanks!

Inputs, DirectX and Modplug fixed

[varlesh]

@zaps166 gui-icons added

[varlesh]

16px 22px

[varlesh]

and modules 32px (fixed)

[zaps166]

Thanks :)

I've got one question - modules icons are on black background, not transparent - is it OK? And how does it look on transparent background for you?

And I wonder what about HiDPI - QMPlay2 currently doesn't support it (and I don't have HiDPI screen to test it :smiley:)...

[varlesh]

You want remove black background or add transparent? I'm not have HiDPI too... hm, icons have SVG-fromat and maybe port to other size. Only i'm not shure Windows support showing SVG's or only PNG's on program?

[varlesh]

Added not-background version https://github.com/varlesh/QMPlay2-Concept/commit/162470f1998d0ac1de0e8860269f2f0ad7def7c2:

[varlesh]

extensions added https://github.com/varlesh/QMPlay2-Concept/commit/9afbf3e5538c591ef7c030bb233e400ec20f6ae8

[varlesh]

Any versions good look with dark themes: But i like background version, because all icons have one scale

[zaps166]

But i like background version

Dark background also looks Ok for me :)

Licesne (I'm not a lawyer):

• Icons: GPL,
• QMPlay2: LGPL.

Does it mean that if I'll include these icons the QMPlay2 will be now on GPL license?

About modules icons:

• I like current XVideo icon - the cross (X) differs too much from X11 cross - X11 has thick line from left to right and thin and splitted line from right to left + ellipse.
• I like current ALSA icon with the walking TUX :smiley:

Is it possible to do a little fixes for this :) ?

[varlesh]

XVideo fixed, but i'm not have idea how add Tux :) License changed to LGPL: https://github.com/varlesh/QMPlay2-Concept/commit/f3f368e1322a911d2bebe426490120f222657530

[zaps166]

XVideo looks good to me now :+1:, I'll try new icons soon :)

but i'm not have idea how add Tux

Icons can be fixed in any time, right? :smiley: So we can defer it now :)

[varlesh]

Maybe better use as original icon style for ALSA?

[varlesh]

I'm add another ALSA icon, fix colors on Subtilte and small fix OpenGL2. Nobackground-version removed. https://github.com/varlesh/QMPlay2-Concept/commit/a9a6141c8e38f084a28d854dc9c98f4f5a7bd09a https://github.com/varlesh/QMPlay2-Concept/commit/fa0cccb82d3cc5616cd59e22fa9685d285518d61

[zaps166]

Hmm, ALSA looks good :) but the Tux was cute :smiley: Visualizations looks weird :smile: but I don't have good idea - maybe something associated with FFT spectrum, oscilloscope or something else?

Also OpenGL looks better :+1:

[varlesh]

fixed https://github.com/varlesh/QMPlay2-Concept/commit/5604080a81cfd07d49343e1b5941cd51a7db384f

[zaps166]

:+1: :)

[zaps166]

Currently I don't want to create icon themes :smiley: (maybe later). I can try to replace QMPlay2's icons, OK? Modules icons will be in modules directories, etc., so where should I put license (is the same, so it is needed?) and authors files? The icons theme name is "Concept", right?

Little fixes:

• AudioCD - bigger disk icon
• Video/Audio filters - hard to see what is it (black rows on dark background, maybe lighter rows and smaller circles?)
• folder and folder-orange - OK, but the difference is small between them.
• applications-multimedia - maybe a little dark gradient on a black "thingie"

Without Tux the ALSA-2.svg is better :smile:

[zaps166]

Missing icon: media-playback-pause

[zaps166]

About the black background: Looks very good on modules list, but doesn't look good on playlist or on context menu... :(

[zaps166]

folder-orange.png and folder.png should be 22x22 as default

[varlesh]

QMPlay2-Concept this temporary repo, you merge icons and i'm delete. Need only AUTHORS. Icons fixed https://github.com/varlesh/QMPlay2-Concept/commit/d7ece30ed54e3dfc9e12a3ab6e1d9fa92c0f93cb I'm change color line on filters icons and reduce logo.

[zaps166]

So I'll create AUTHORS for me, you and for other contributors, is it OK :) ?

archive-remove - i know that its name is archive, but it can look more like playlist i.e. white color or something (similar to Oxygen, because it was white) :)

[zaps166]

I'll merge icons into my temporary branch (maybe today), so I'm waiting for last fixes :)

I don't know what to do with dark background on e.g. playlist, maybe it needs two different icons (with and w/o background)?

[varlesh]

folders fixed https://github.com/varlesh/QMPlay2-Concept/commit/81be7643a8e42e167f1c8c7ebd55dfa0e759738f Maybe disable this icons on context menu?

[zaps166]

Btw. I'm using this for creating PNG:

for f in *.svg; do
    inkscape -z -e $f.png $f
    rename .svg.png .png *.svg.png
done

[varlesh]

rsvg-convert good util too

[varlesh]

like that archive-remove ?

[zaps166]

like that archive-remove ?

looks good, I'll see in QMPlay2 :)

[zaps166]

applications-multimedia

Now everything is black

[varlesh]

archive icon fixed https://github.com/varlesh/QMPlay2-Concept/commit/4a1708f833f585ddb17b32247ed6437b29bb4c4f

[zaps166]

Ok!

applications-multimedia I thought about adding a little gradient to the black note, the blue arrow was OK

[varlesh]

all blue, note and play?

[varlesh]

or for example

[zaps166]

Good :smile:

And what about green note (with gradient like above) and blue (like before) arrow?

[zaps166]

Btw. do you able to do new icons if I'll add a now module?

[varlesh]

multimedia fixed https://github.com/varlesh/QMPlay2-Concept/commit/eb206a7b7e5df2842c5ed9d6ebff8a614b8dbec1 Yes, what you need?

[zaps166]

You can see that here that black background isn't good... So the only thing is to create two icons: for module and for context menu/playlist. I think I'm able to remove the background in Inkscape (only for some modules) :)

[zaps166]

multimedia fixed

Ok, testing - this icon is the most frequent icon, so I want it to be as good as possible :)

Yes, what you need?

1. Future modules :)
2. QMPlay2 lacks of icons in context menus, so if you have a time you can always do some icons :)

[varlesh]

need add other sizes for context, because more icons blurred. For example, Files, Directory, YouTube and etc

[zaps166]

Yes, but it is less important (later). The best idea is to use SVG, but it needs QtSvg module :/
