Drawing an icon
Most of the set is drawn at 16 pixels, and an overlay at 11. Both are small enough that a half pixel of drift is visible, so the construction is stated rather than judged by eye.
Action icons
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Size | 16x16px |
| Protective space | 1px |
| Effective size | 14x14px |
| Outline width | 1px |
| Smooth edges | 0.5px / 0.25px |
| Color | black / transparent |
Overlay icons
Drawn at 11x11px. An overlay sits in the corner of another icon rather than standing on its own, so it is the one part of the set not drawn to the 16 pixel grid.
Which grid an icon is on
Counted from the set as it stands, not stated once and left to rot. A drawing that does not sit on one of these is drawn to a box nothing else in the set uses.
| Grid | Icons | Where |
|---|---|---|
| 16 | 681 | Actions, apps, content, form, mimetypes and the rest. |
| 11 | 27 | Overlays, which sit in the corner of another icon. |
| 32 | 27 | The Install Tool. |
| 64 | 61 | Modules, avatar and file folders. See module icons. |
