Hi Robert,

General comments. These look really nice.



New version of icons for actions and basic objects in high resolution is
ready.
Plus some new icons for map display window toolbar.

Eye is perfect. Hollow asterisk is hard to figure out.
IMHO, the pencil needs color to tell what it is.

I like what you've done with the action icons, especially the way you've replaced the more common folder icon with a more abstract ring. If this can be seen clearly enough when the action icons (small) are added to the object icons, it's a big improvement over the normal.

Layer seems very good and understandable to me, as does map display.

Abstract map icon OK. It doesn't jump out and say "map" to me. BUT I DO understand the symbolism and it's easy to learn. So this may be the best option for the underlying concept. I assume that you'll use interior designs/color to differentiate between different map types. Those should make this even clearer.

These are shaping up in an impressive way. The planning put into this will make it easier for users to learn and use this complex program.

Thanks
Michael

And one question.
Why "Constrain map to region geometry" icon gets during display additional
border at left side and top?

Robert
