Yes, size is used as a way to highlight more common functions. Another reason for large icons is that the ribbon was also designed to scale. Large icons can become small ones with a small window, and a whole category of icons can collapse into one large icon (large, because there's one column per category and a small one wouldn't cover the height). > > > Gnome doesn't have its own ordered list icon -- the LibreOffice one was > > designed by me. > > Thanks for designing them.

Out of all the icons I've worked on, I'm pretty happy with these, so... please be careful. :) > > > BTW, it'd be great to share our icons with projects like these.

Our icon scheme doesn't use the same naming as Gnome's, it has a number of LibreOffice-specific icons, it'd be useless to create larger versions of many of those icons, and maintaining both the Gnome repo and our icons up-to-date and consistent would be unfeasible. > > The actual Gnome save icon uses a green arrow symbol over a file cabinet, > > but it was rejected by the team after Bjorn Balazs's research showed it > > wasn't easily recognizable. > > Yes i've seen the gnome save icons of the arrow in the cabinet and didnt > think it was very understandable.

OK, pencil sounds good. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
