Eirik Bakke updated NETBEANS-2617:
----------------------------------
Description:
Once NETBEANS-2604 is done, we should start replacing commonly seen NetBeans
icons with SVG versions, for improved appearance on Retina/HiDPI displays.
h2. UPDATE: Progress is now tracked per [these
instructions|https://github.com/apache/netbeans-tools/blob/master/icon-scripts/README.txt]
in the netbeans-tools repository
With some practice, it takes on average 30 minutes to create an SVG version of
a typical icon in Adobe Illustrator. See the attached illustration and
Illustrator template. The Illustrator template includes a few icons which have
already been converted.
In NETBEANS-2605, a prioritized list of icons to convert was produced (now
migrated to the Google Sheet above). By redrawing the most commonly seen icons
first, we can get the greatest "bang for the buck" in terms of improving
NetBeans' appearance on HiDPI displays. Once we have a batch of icons ready to
integrate into the NetBeans repository, Eirik will redo the duplicate detection
and ensure the SVGs end up in all relevant locations, and start creating pull
requests.

[https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/HiDPI+%28Retina%29+improvements]

The style guide and process notes has been moved to [this confluence
