Support for Vector icons in the icons tab #139

Closed Donnnno closed 1 year ago

Donnnno commented 1 year ago

Right now, there are two options for vector based icons: Adaptive & Layer-list. But one is missing, the default vector one.

It would be great to have support for that, because it can help with keeping the appsize small.

(so icons with the attribute)

@Donnnno Vector icons does work, I have tested. Only issue is they won't display correctly in 'icons' section.

That's pretty interesting, I guess I should rename the title of the issue then :)

Can you give me an example vector icon file?

Donnnno commented 1 year ago

Of course! This one should do:

android.zip

Fixed in v3.17.4

Donnnno commented 1 year ago

Thank you so much for adding this!

Oooohhh, fantastic!!! Just so I understand correctly: this means instead of shipping icons as PNG files with my icon pack, I can ship vector drawables? Are there any implications of doing so, i.e. would there be any devices or versions that don't support this format?

Donnnno commented 1 year ago

Some older launchers probably don't support this such as openlauncher. But yeah, it's much better than PNG.

Also that means you could release or make a Material You version with this pretty easily (we're doing it right now with Arcticons)
