Re: [QGIS-Developer] icons for remove/delete actions

2020-01-08 Thread Robert Szczepanek

Dear Raymond,

It is hard sometimes to follow fuzzy rules, especially in such large 
projects like QGIS, with so many contributors.
I am not the author of 'traffic sign' icons group, and cannot easily 
define the associated metaphor.


Perhaps we should review the current state of overall toolbar icons 
consistency and try to improve it somehow.

Thank you for paying attention.

regards,
Robert

Thank you Robert!

Interesting to read that pdf as well. However it doesn't contain 
"traffic sign" icons, which are the ones I found mostly in QGIS.


So in short:

- Non-destructive removal (hide)
x Destructive removal (delete)
ø QGIS removal?

Kind regards,
Raymond

I must agree with Alex - Transifex attracts people, but just to 
translate few random phrases or just to make an account. That's why I 
asked recently on [qgis-tr] about project policy on updating translators 
list.


We spend now more time correcting buggy translations made 
unintentionally due to lack of context in Transifex and/or due to 
autotranslations. But still have no idea how to find the best 
compromise, between attracting new people to the project and keeping 
translation quality at the same time.

Re: [QGIS-Developer] Rendering of Icons

2017-11-13 Thread Robert Szczepanek

Hi Calvin,

How to render sharp icons is described in my design guidelines 
(http://robert.szczepanek.pl/gis-icons-0.1/). It depends on objects 
(lines) location on grid at target resolution.


Inkscape writes in SVG many additional tags. Our goal is to decrease SVG 
icon size, so final vector files are simply optimized by external tools.


regards
Robert

W dniu 13.11.2017 o 21:46, C Hamilton pisze:
I was wondering how you turn the QGIS .svg icons into .png icons that 
are used in the tool bars. I have been using Inkscape and the resulting 
icons that I produce starting from the QGIS .svg files don't seem to be 
as sharp and clear as what is distributed with QGIS. The other thing I 
have found is that the QGIS .svg files are very small. If I read them 
into Inkscape and save them back out they are much larger.


Thanks,

HI,

I just want to remark, that under

Optional dependencies:
...
- for georeferencer - GSL = 1.8

the version number can't be correct, cause there is no such high
version  available.
This might be no big problem for most people, but for a noob like me,
this  is causing hysteria and increasing blood pressure.

I think it came into existence from an old version i found here
http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Minimal-requirements-td4157264.html
where it sais:

- for georeferencer - GSL = ? (works with 1.8)



In general, I would also like to remark, that it would be very nice to
 have kind of a wiki for build instructions for the different
platforms and  versions and the different related resources like GDAL,
spatialite etc. as  well, cause I have to build GDAL myself for MrSID
and FGDB-support (and  without that, QGIS on Linux is quite useless
for me, at least not for  productive work).
Finding all these infos (and sometimes not very congruentt ones) in

already invest so much time in fiddling out this, I would like to have
the  other parts state of the art as well, but there is unfortunately
no common  place for instructions on the related items.

[Qgis-developer] layer toolbar icons

2013-07-08 Thread Robert Szczepanek

Hi,

Following Denis and other's efforts on better icons [1] I want to 
propose extreme simplification. In layer toolbar we have 8-9 icons with 
'add layer' in context. Let's skip this redundant part (add action and 
layer in background) from the graphics. Missing database icons for 
Oracle and MS SQL are in [2], and simplified W*S icons are in [3]. There 
are more colours, but still in the same palette.


'Add vector layer' and 'add raster layer' icons probably should be left 
with only 'layer' sign, as it will be more consistent with 'create 
vector layer'.
We should leave also 'create' and 'remove' action icons with layer 
background in this set.


Nice PostGIS and SQLite icons by Denis are almost ready. I would just 
add them colours.
Original add CSV icon (with two fields on both sides of comma) is better 
for me, as comma itself will look very lonely :)

I can make original version bigger and remove 'import' action.

I'm not sure, but your version Denis look blurry. Are you aligning 
objects to grid or is it due to increased line width?


Thank you Denis and others for your effort in making QGIS nicer!

best regards,
Robert

This is an interesting idea, but I'm afraid hard to implement. We could 
get very strange mixture of colours (location of icons changes...). We 
could also make one background colour per toolbar. But there are several 
toolbars and we (man) - in opposite to women - don't recognize so many

Maybe simply skip some icon elements in toolbars, with many similar

Re: [Qgis-developer] [Qgis-user] New Icons - difficult to read

2013-05-24 Thread Robert Szczepanek

Hi Jonathan,

You are right. Problem with new icons is that we have started with some 
idea (add raster, vector, PostgreSQL layer) and end up with several 
icons of the same type. First three icons are different, however have 
too many elements. Next are worse, and Oracle and others wait for more 
general problem solution.


What are the options from my point of view (just layer toolbar)?

1. We could remove green plus leaving the others (yellow star and red 
minus). This will give some more space to increase symbol size.


2. Remove 'layer' symbol, but in this case 'create vector layer' will be 
identical to 'create vector' in edit toolbar. But considering toolbar 
context is could be OK.

Definitely we should remove 'layer' from WMS, WFS and similar.

3. Due to variety of database formats replace them with clones of 
database logo.


All changes are possible, but after general agreement. We can do it now 
or after QGIS 2.0 release.


regards,
Robert

i.e. The difference between the Add PostGIS layers and Add SpatiaLite
layers is that one has a regular cylinder and the other has a
fat-waisted hour-glass cylinder - about 20-30 pixels are different in an

differences. And there's still MSSQL and Oracle icons to be created in
the new schema which using this system will only confuse things more.


Don't get me wrong, I like the style of the new icons, but they're
really hard to visually differentiate.

Layer toolbar could look like this [1], except OWS icons.
Oracle Spatial logo was not found, so I took 'O' from Oracle, but it 
looks ugly in this context. Combination of this 'O' with database symbol 
doesn't look nice either. Some proposals ...?


We could leave old database symbol with different colours, but MSSQL, 
SpatiaLite and Oracle icons are mainly red so this will be hard. 
Additionally we must remember about color-blind persons.

Robert

Hi Jonathan,

You are right. Problem with new icons is that we have started with some
idea (add raster, vector, PostgreSQL layer) and end up with several
icons of the same type. First three icons are different, however have
too many elements. Next are worse, and Oracle and others wait for more
general problem solution.

What are the options from my point of view (just layer toolbar)?

1. We could remove green plus leaving the others (yellow star and red
minus). This will give some more space to increase symbol size.

2. Remove 'layer' symbol, but in this case 'create vector layer' will be
identical to 'create vector' in edit toolbar. But considering toolbar
context is could be OK.
Definitely we should remove 'layer' from WMS, WFS and similar.

3. Due to variety of database formats replace them with clones of
database logo.

All changes are possible, but after general agreement. We can do it now
or after QGIS 2.0 release.

Robert

+1

i.e. The difference between the Add PostGIS layers and Add SpatiaLite
layers is that one has a regular cylinder and the other has a
fat-waisted hour-glass cylinder - about 20-30 pixels are different in an
icon that's got 1024 pixels! I have to look at them in detail to see the
differences. And there's still MSSQL and Oracle icons to be created in
the new schema which using this system will only confuse things more.


Don't get me wrong, I like the style of the new icons, but they're
really hard to visually differentiate.


I did a quick google and came across this:

The QGIS icons do all of the top three things.

Re: [Qgis-developer] Icon theme update

2013-04-16 Thread Robert Szczepanek

Hi,

Very reduced use of colors in gis theme was intentional.
Colors should be used in come consistent manner.
Blue-gray was just a base. Now we can start adding (with caution) colors.

Central part of icon:
yellow - select, selected object
green - object to be edited
blue - neutral (any context)

Action part of icon (right bottom):
yellow - create, select
green - add
red - delete, remove
blue - others

I know some icons are VERY similar in look, so feel free to propose what 
new color should be used where.

Use this threat if possible please.

regards,
Robert

Larry_S wrote

Some time ago, devs voted to move to the 'gis' theme as the default, i.e.
not just the one selected by default but also the only theme supported by
the project. Even after this update, you may notice the icons are still
hodge-podge with inconsistent ones needing work. Due to lack of developers
to maintain multiple project-supported themes, it is best to have only
one,
so that a concerted effort can be made to keep it complete and cohesive.

Does mean that we can use themes in QGIS 2.0?




No theme support code was removed, only the gis theme condensed upon the
current default (because many default icons are still used) and old
project
themes removed. However, there has been talk of removing all theme
support,
but I can't speak to the state of that decision.

I like to revive my nkids theme for QGIS 2.0 as option for Mac OS X

QGIS, is this possible?



I'm not entirely sure, but to use a different theme than the default, you
will need to add it to the appropriate source directories, edit the .qrc
files and compile the source again. For example, nkids has been in the
source themes directory for awhile, but not choose-able in the gui because
it is not been made part of compiled-in resource system.

I did add some code to push any old saved theme choice over to the new
default, so if you did add a revamped nkids theme, maybe considering
giving
it a new name as well.


Hi Larry,
it's a total surprise to me, since I thought I was following list
intensivly. I remember voting against gis theme, but majority did choose as
default. That's fine, I'm OK with the vote. But I was thinking having the
choice to switch back to classic theme !
I submitted both themes to users and all of them in my corp wanted to keep
classical one. By myself, I really have visual difficulties with gis theme
(to much blue-grey, very few pixels to distinguish functions, overly
complicated icons..)
Moreover, I must say I've not been able to fund anything for months in QGIS
project due to the lack of visibility. Please think of us and let us see
more clearly where we can help the projects.

Sorry for that message, but these last minute surprises really starts to be
a problem to me.

Régis

Concerning your request for Expression + Selection with
additional
plus/minus/intersection elements.
I'm afraid of making icons with too much information.
Perhaps we could make it in this (context) order:
expression-select
select-add (not ready yet, but similar to [2])
select-remove (not ready yet)

This is very general problem. In different places we could
just use
'+' or '-' icons. What do you think (Matthias, Larry)?

I understand your concerns. Especially for small icons.
In this case, the context can actually be used to skip the
expression
icon (the user is in the expression builder dialog) and a
select-add/select-remove/__select-intersect button will be
sufficient. So
I'd be happy with your idea.

Could you also commit a standalone expression builder icon (to
use as
such and as a basis to combine it with other tools)?

Robert

I also thought, that for the expression combined with something else,
the something else part should be in the center and the expression

main task of selecting/filtering/defining the preview.

What do you think?

From technical point of view, will we improve somehow accessibility for

OSGeo Graphics is updated based on different requests (QGIS, GRASS and 
others). I would prefer to treat 'any' OSGeo repository (at OSGeo or 
github) as main point for graphics dissemination.
My point is - lets find the simplest environment for designers, but 
common for OSGeo projects. If we want seperate QGIS icons repo (on 
github), it can be synchronized/copied from central OSGeo. Or made as 
sub-folder/sub-project.



2) Condense current icons/pixmaps used in QGIS from all themes into just
the default theme, with preference to vote-preferred GIS theme. Move the
discarded icons and themes to the graphics repo, for later reference.


+1


3) Copy any relevant SVG/pixmap sources from OSGeo repo [0] and Robert
Szczepanek's source icon work (that may not be in current source code
repo) [2] to new qgis-graphics repository.


I moved all my work to OSGeo Graphics to avoid duplication. Duplicating 
it in qgis-graphics will make work harder. Unless it will be some 
synchro mechanism, which I'm not familiar with.



4) Try to convert ALL new default theme icons to SVG, which may mean
recreating many as vector art since the embedded-raster-in-SVG method
doesn't seem to work well now (causes ugly upscaling) [3]. It should be
possible to fix that issue in code, allowing for use of
pixmaps-inside-SVG, until they are converted to vector-based SVGs.


This is the point I would prefer to focus on, not administering two repos.


* Maybe look into some funding for someone, like Robert, to work on 1)

For me, at the moment, it is more matter of time (lack of), not money.
And anyone is welcome to supply OSGeo repo.
For coders, please just open appropriate tickets at OSGeo Graphics as 
not always I can follow fast QGIS progress.

By the way - great work Larry on QGIS improvement.

Robert

The version with only icons is optional, and is produced by setting an

am definitely not in favor of it being a default. Thanks for the

so +1 for me foremost for freeing vertical space

ciao
MArco


I've been working on reducing overall clutter and excess space, and
trying to increase efficiency and extensibility, with options dialogs.

Problems with current option dialogs' parent QTabWidget approach:

* Tab widget uses unnecessary vertical space (bad for small screens).
* Tab widget limits the use of reasonably needed tabs for option
sections (avoiding tabs-within-tabs unfortunately trumps useability).
* Horizontal parent tabs limit how many option sections can be offered
(already too wide, without text truncation, on Mac).
* Horizontal parent tabs dictate the width of the dialog, causing form
layout elements to optically stretch too far apart.


Possible solution: Move 'tabs' to simple list widget on left side of a
splitter and have option sections loaded on right.

I have done mockups for the app and vector layer options [0], which
show the following advantages:

* Vertical height is maximized without sacrificing layout of option
section form elements (good for smaller screens).
* Number of option sections is not graphically limited.
* Number of option sections no longer dictates width of option section
forms (forms look much better).
* List item widget can have its splitter section collapsed to a set
size to show only icons for sections.
* Consistent look across platforms, with larger icons for sections.
* More current 'look' for v 2.0 without too much work.

Other than making the dialogs clearer and less cluttered IMHO, the
full useability of the dialogs at smaller sizes helps the user see
more map canvas when testing options with Apply.

Any comments or suggestions?

Re: [Qgis-developer] SVG-Icons instead of PNGs?

Hi Andreas,

I made fast SVG downscaling test. Rendered with Inkscape.
Second column is shifted vertically by 0,5px.
As you can see main problem is travelling blur effect. Perhaps there 
are some smart renderers to overcome this.


I would also like to have just one SVG file...

Thanks for the reply.

Do you have a side-by-side comparison of SVG vs. png and the rendering

much of a problem it really is.

Having just one icon size instead of n different sizes also has a lot of
advantages. Think about all the new high-dpi devices. These would
benefit a lot from SVG instead of PNG.

Hi,
my opinion is somewhere between Larry's and Yve's..
GIS theme has two main drawbacks IMHO:

1. Global render of toolbars is a cold blue - gray, in opposite of all QGIS
relate support, that are colorfull (sites, GUI). It looks very old school
GIS to me.. My wife, who likes painting, and sometimes uses QGIS at work,
clearly vote for current theme..


This is first version of icons and I concentrated mainly on content. 
Content should be clear without colours.

1. Not everyone can recognize colours.
2. Colour should have some meaning, unless we make just nice images. We 
still don't have such colour table.



2. Shapes of icons are too 'edgy' and complex to me, so difficult to read


Sharpness was the assumption at this version, and icons were designed in 
final rendering size.

Complexity will be improved in next versions. I hope so.


Just a thougth, GIS zoom tools are leaning to the right, whereas current
tools are leaning to the left. I find it.. strange (I right hand writer).


I decided to use right bottom part of icons for actions. That's the reason.

Hi Robert,

Just as a suggestion, what do you think about converting your icon
set to 2.5D from their current 2D version? I have attached two quick
mock-ups to illustrate, essentially adding just enough drop shadow
to have the icons 'pop' a little more from the toolbar. Too much
shadow effect and it starts to degrade the sharpness of some thinner
aspects, meaning a single shadow calculation won't work across the
set.


I like bottom shadow icons. It should look nice with 24x24px and
bigger icons. For sure not with 16x16px. We can try it and make parallel 
set with shadows. The problems is elsewhere. To use is, this new version 
should be complete. Partial implementation is the worst scenario.

Hi Robert,


The shadows look quite nice for me. The larger issue I have is that
many of the icons are just hard to recognise when you see them lined
up side by side.


Could you please point them out. I see this problem with open 
PostGIS/SpatiaLite/MSSQL layer, but we can solve it using colours.



Also, there has been discussion on condensing some icon groups down to
one entry icon that has a popup menu (Qt's InstantPopup or
MenuButtonPopup [1]). A few toolbar icons use this now, e.g. Feature
Selection tool. Using that technique and condensing functionality into
better dialogs (see Nathan's import dialog [2]) will go a long way
towards thinning the current icon-heavy look.

When considering condensing such items care has to be taken not to
introduce extra clicks for tools that should be only one click away,
e.g. Pan and Zoom tools. Though group entry icons are very similar to
menubar menus at that point, they have the added advantages of being
language-agnostic and visible when users switch to full screen mode,
which usually hides the menubar.


My argument against these is that they defeat the purpose of icons
(making functionality available with single click). It takes two
clicks to invoke an action from a menu so in my mind the use case for
popup tool buttons should be restricted to where those tools need to
indicate a toggled state (like the map tools). A secondary
consideration is that when I give training courses the selection popup
toolbutton is something that novice users struggle with and it is not
very discoverable. Your points for it are interesting, though I
suspect that the number of people running qgis fullscreen is extremely
small.


I agree with Tim. We should avoid grouping icons, unless there is very 
high usage frequency ratio (one icon used much, much often than the 
other). Good example is labelling toolbar. It should be grouped and 
included in some other toolbar. This optimization must be focused on 
beginners, as experienced users probably use more keyboard shortcuts.

Robert

Tim



So, there may need to be some new icons made that represent tool
groups, though some discussion on condensing tools has to happen
first.

I've voted for the GIS theme, though I share my opinion on icon size.
I work with various GIS and CAD software (both OS and commercial) and
I've always found a bit strange the default 24x24 icon size of QGis.
Most of the other softwares use 16x16 icons.


24x24 icon size is result of some preliminary discussion and research.


I know that one can change the icon size, but having just the 24x24
icons the scaling produces blurs and keeps the icon padding proportions,
while with 16x16 it could be reduced to provide more room.


Rescaling is not good idea, even from SVG. At this size scalability is 
very limited.



Here are two screenshots of Qgis with 16x16 icons [1] and one from a
commercial software with the same icon size [2]. Notice the different
spacing, and the crisp icons.

I suggest to package 16x16 version for the icons, and revise the icon
padding


You are absolutely right. There should be additional 16x16px version. 
With very limited spare time my options are:

1/ Try to keep project's progress (GRASS and QGIS) and design missing icons.
2/ Make them nicer - more colourful, 2.5D, etc.
3/ Prepare icons for 16x16 and 32x32px

And I decided to follow this priority: 1 - 2 - 3.
I hope you understand my point of view.

Robert

I was wrong and those are two different functions - pan (in navigator)

So 'one arrow with a square' in composer should be replaced with 'for

An excellent tool that is available for presenting curriculum is
an open

Once we have a list, we can look into ways of developing plugins/tools

You are right. I was talking already about it with Andrea from 
HydroloGIS. This alternative must be considered.



2011/6/27 Saber Razmjooei razmjoo...@faunalia.co.uk
Hopefully OpenMI will take off soon.


Why?


As you know, the software packages are very diverse for water modelling.
What will be great to see, in short term, to offer QGIS as a platform
for model building, post processing, etc. The intention, at least at
this stage, is not to write yet another modelling package.


In short term - agree.


There are several organizations/companies stuck with ESRI/Mapinfo/etc
products to deal with their GIS input/output files. I guess to start
with,  will be good to persuade these types of users to migrate their
GIS platform to QGIS by offering some simple set of tools to deal with
their modelling packages.


My goal is not related to import/export routines, which for sure are 
also important. I don't treat QGIS just as GIS environment, but as 
potential modelling environment.
Very seldom products you are talking are comprehensive. What I propose, 
is to implement common interface on top of those products. This way 
implementation will be much easier, or not ;).

*we also offer a bunch of spatial interpolation algorithms (the kriging

In such a context, we could then provide transparent
access to lots of meteorological+DEM data. This could for example allow
a user to simply define his base layer, select a meteorological
parameter (like air temperature) and get spatially interpolated values
on his DEM... I think that it would potentially be very nice.


Your project looks nice and could be very valuable especially with

Interpolation procedures, solar radiation and meteo data access sounds

Thank you Martin for this error. Already corrected in SVN.
I tried to use similar colors as in original. If it will be hard to

When adding to repository I guess they should be included in both gis

Yes, changes can be included in both. But in my opinion we should merge

Hi Alex,


My plan at this

replicate this functionality locally as a plugin (possibly future core

As we discussed before I agree with your idea. This seems to be well 
scalable and interoperable solution.
I'm also very interested in such infrastructure, so you can rely on me 
building both applications.



The whole thing is still in the very early stages so I welcome
conversation on the topic and invite others to join OSGeo graphics to
really find a multi-app solution for the FOSS GIS community. It will
probably be a few months before we get anything up on the website, since
there are much higher priorities for the plugin site that still need to
be done.


I will start working with new map icons set in May-June. But there are 
many issues to discuss in the meantime on OSGeo graphics concerning your 
concept.

 If you are a developer, you can add tips directly to

Your code is ready for i18n, but I can't find those phrases in

another reason?


And one more observation. Looking for tips in general program settings,

Mainly the vertex/save/measure elements but this issue (I'm a mole) is
due to the very pale colorset with not enought contrast, I have to focus
my view on each icons to differentiate them. Another difficulty is that
somes lack thickness like the scissor or the refresh part of mActionDraw.


This is not only your opinion, so in new version I will increase 
contrast. And use more colors :)
