jean-pierre,
ok, now worries, I guess I just did not upload them. well in
attachment you can find the folder "icons" that I think should replace
the current content of the "bitmaps_png/icons" folder. Inside there
are all main .ico files for kicad as well as .icns files for user who
what to build it for OS X.
It would be great if OSX people could use these icons instead of the
ones spread here and there.
Also, I think the current version of Linux does not seem to use high
resolution icons
Let me know if in somehow do not meet your needs.
cheers
Fabrizio
I saw new .ico files (in icons.zip) are in 256x256 pixels.
I don't know if this very large size is useful for OS X, but Windows needs
32x32 pixels format.
256x256 format gives very large files (350KB instead of 8KB) and are always
displayed as 16x16 or 32x32 pixels.
The icon_3d.ico file is useless (the 3D frame cannot be called outside CvPcv or
Pcbnew).
Under Windows the .ico files are used only to create a resource file, and not
inside sources.
Under linux, .ico files are not used.
Only icon_kicad.xpm or icon_kicad.png are used, and only to create a desktop
shortcut to Kicad
For desktop shortcuts, formats bigger than 48x48 (or perhaps 64x64) are not
very usable.
(You can display only few 256x256 icons on an usual monitor)
So currently I am reluctant to change 32x32 or 48x48 icon files by 256x256 icon
very large files
Sorry.
