    This is to track discussion and progress around integrating the icons being developed at BitcoinDesign/Bitcoin-Icons into the GUI.

    Current Status: Waiting for missing icons

    Rationale

    The integration of these icons is a nice-to-have facelift for the GUI. While here, we can introduce the use of Icon Themes. This is useful for aesthetic/accessibility reasons; the outlined theme as default, option to enable filled icon theme.

    This will be closed by a PR introducing these new icons.

    Note: This will focus on ensuring we have direct one-to-one swaps with the current icon set. This will not focus on new non-existent icons that we would like to use for a feature.

    Currently not convinced that the proposed replacements HD icons are a good fit.

    Thanks for the summary, this is great. Would it be possible to add another table column with the use/purpose of each icon? For example, I am not sure what the eye plus/minus ones are used for. From talking to @Bosch-0, it also sounds like the HD icon is not quite accurate in that it’s used to indicate a (non-)blank wallet, and the eye icon being used to indicate that the private key is disabled. There might be different visual metaphors that communicate these things more clearly, so starting with the purpose of each icon would be helpful.

    Do we need to differentiate between copy and paste icons or could those be the same? If we need two, then it would be ideal if they looked similar (like font bigger and smaller are similar)

    Thank you.

    I really like these. Not sure how future proof the Proxy icon is with a possible Tor/I2P icon (or how network icons will really even work with multiple privacy networks honestly, but thought I should bring it up).

    I’m not sure how I feel about the Send/Receive being the same as the TxOut/In

    Otherwise, awesome!

  7. Bosch-0 commented at 2:09 am on June 22, 2021: none

    For simplicity we should stick with just using the filled style. Outline style’s can be reserved for other states such as an ‘disabled’ state.

    Extra icons to add to this list:

    • Disabled private keys - currently a lower opacity eye icon is used, the outline two key icon could be used for inactive state and filled for active.

    Can you even create a HD disabled keys with the GUI? If not we should just remove the HD and HD disabled icons as they do not add any benefit.

    Do we need an icon to show that the wallet is a descriptor wallet?

  8. Rspigler commented at 5:34 pm on June 22, 2021: contributor
    I feel like the outline style is a more modern/fresh look compared to the filled style (although you guys are the designers). Using the outline style as a disabled state I feel would be confusing.

    Closing as I will no longer be working on a patch set for new icons in this repo. bitcoin-core/gui-qml will use the bitcoindesign icons.
