Tried to match the existing file icons in Zed as much as possible. This is how it looks: | dark | light | |---|----| | <img width="183" alt="Screenshot 2024-02-06 at 15 03 57" src="https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/assets/43472/bd862753-41bb-4ca6-9a44-16b9b1c9591c"> | <img width="180" alt="Screenshot 2024-02-06 at 15 03 14" src="https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/assets/43472/9df8c589-64b6-49f2-8e15-b43126579a9f"> | The main challenge is that the tangram is visually quite heavy and detailed. The existing icons in Zed are designed in a 14px bounding box, but are a bit smaller themselves. I guess the extra space is reserved for hanging elements, it probably doesn't make sense to occupy the whole area. Simply scaling down an available SVG of the tangram didn't work well. The individual shapes were not recognizable because the spacing between them was too thin. I tried removing the spacing and applying different opacities for each shape, but that didn't yield enough contrast between the shapes either. The second approach was to just use the outlines. It sort of worked, but looked a bit messy in the places when the outlines are denser than the tangram shapes: | dark | light | |---|----| | <img width="192" alt="Screenshot 2024-02-05 at 22 55 46" src="https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/assets/43472/d0029f49-675d-40ac-96d8-788a29706bad"> | <img width="195" alt="Screenshot 2024-02-05 at 22 56 05" src="https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/assets/43472/d2de922a-70ec-4bd1-9033-db9a5201e9bd"> | I then tried to remove the main outline and use the maximum space for the tangram. That let me increase the spacing between the shapes. I also rounded them a little bit, to make them look similar to other icons from Zed. The end result looks clean and the shapes are still recognisable. Approaches I tried next to an existing icon from Zed: <img width="711" alt="Screenshot 2024-02-06 at 15 15 33" src="https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/assets/43472/a3e4b0db-4b98-4072-91e8-fe71cff19adf"> Release Notes: - Added file type icon for Elm |
