Here's the same HDA using a SVG image and a PNG 600x600 image as icon. The source is some vector work from Inkscape (on the right).


The PNG colors look burned and the SVG looks blured and edges jagged, neither can get the dashed detail visible in Inkscape and in “Group Create” SOP.

How to achieve HDA icons that match the vector work in Inkscape?

Thanks

The svg looks properly anti-aliased to me, and the dashed bits of the icon might just be too small to delineate (the circle in the Group Create icon is larger).

Hey DaJuice

I went to Group Create SOP help page, downloaded the SVG and indeed the dashes are bigger. I guess it's quite the balancing act when doin icons specially anti-aliased ones.

Since my Group icon is smaller I also had to increase the size of the dashes and now sort of looks like intended.


Thanks

Not sure if this is related… am seeing my HDA icons getting “crushed” (gamma?) and not matching the original jpg. Using the same source image in the “help” menu of the HDA looks fine, though.

Yeah, I'm using SVG here. Seems to work better than pixel images.
