Why do you think I know this is a scaling factor ?
I didn't have a clue until Werner explained.
Sorry, you can argue all you like, but if I see a list of icon files
xyz_24x24.png then I know *exactly* what to create, just from the
filenames. No need to do math, open file whatnot.
With your method, I need to open the file (unless I know standard size is
24), check the size, and then possibly multiply (if I know that the suffix
is the scaling factor in %).
[...]
I would guess that naming the files 'xyz_24x24.png' (base size 24px),
'xyz_24x24_150.png' (150% 36px) and 'xyz_24x24_200.png' (200% 48px) could be
a reasonable naming solution?
As I said: 150, 200 do not strike me as scalings in percent.
That the CPU needs to do an extra couple of cycles (convert scaling to
pixel) to make things easier on humans - that's why mankind invented it.
Forgive me, but I will discontinue the discussion.
I think I made it clear what I think is (in my view) absurd and have no wish
to antagonize anyone by continuing to argue for something which should be
obvious and plain.
Michael.
