   > How does NB render the vector graphics atm, with batik?
   
   Yes, with Batik, originally introduced in 
[this](https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/1278) PR. Alternative 
approaches, such as storing each icon as a bitmap at 2x size, could be 
considered in the future, if we want to get rid of this rather heavyweight 
library.
   
   > I think they look good, but you can definitively see the slight "style" 
difference if there is a svg/png mix in the same toolbar.
   
   Yeah, I tried to establish a 
[style](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/SVG+Icon+Style+Guide+and+Process)
 that made the mix between old and new icons reasonably tolerable. The main 
difference is the higher resolution in the newer icons, as well as the removal 
of bevels and shadows (which are hard to draw in vector graphics and are out of 
fashion for the same reason).
