[icon] redrawn icon pack based on SF Symbols

[redbreast]

Hi Calibre community,
Inspired by utterances's “San Francisco" icon pack, I created an new icon pack for MacOS based on SF Symbols.

Features:

• a lot of redrawn icons based on the actual functions in Calibre
• more suitable size, weight and color
• reduce the use of color for a more modern looking
• ready for light and dark mode
• a prepared color setting for importing
• color system: Green - OK/Add/ON/Unlocked, Red - No/Back/Exit/Minus/Locked, Orange - Attention/Coloured, Blue - Info, Purple - Edit/Code, Yellow - the rests.

Some SF Symbols are included, they are licensed for used on Apple platforms and non-commercial use. The rest icons I drawn are also Creative Commons (CC BY-NC).

The icon pack file and thumbnails will be posted in 2nd floor.

I look forward to trying this.

Here’s the first version of this icon pack. I named it “Flat Design”. I compressed all icons to 128x128 resolution. If Calibre can use higher resolution icons, just tell me then I will make a hi-res version.

Attachments are the file outputted by Calibre and some screenshots.

And I need a little help here, the "icon-theme-cover.jpg” file doesn’t output correctly for me. I’ve tried it on Win and Mac, it always output the default cover — What should I do?

More screenshots, what it looks like in:
- setting
- right click menu
- editing metadata
- system menu

Already uploaded, before it landing in Calibre, you can try it out and tell me if you like it!

I liked the ​​eyes​ icon

Unzip and import it in "Preferences - Look & feel - Adjust colors", then you will get the same color setting just like the screenshots above!

LOL. I like it much more than the single eye. It’s cute.

The screenshot are the contents inside the icon pack. Why the output program keeps giving me the default cover? I unpacked other icon packs and checked, they were not like this.

You need a file named icon-theme-cover.jpg in your folder of icons, then it will be used as the cover, otherwise a default cover is generated. And currently that default generation uses the default icons, if the theme doesnt contain the icons used for the cover. The code doesnt check for light and dark variants in the theme, so because your theme contains ligh and dark variants the icons arent getting picked up.

And this should take care of it:

I tried to place “icon-theme-cover.jpg”, “icon_theme_cover.jpg”, “icon theme cover.jpg” and “cover.jpg” in the icon folder. It didn’t work, still generate the default cover.

If I want to custom a plugin's icon in an icon pack, is there any way to work out? I’ve seen other icon pack such as the “Setenove” series, it places a lot icons of plugins in folders named by plugin's names. But when I installed it, it didn’t work. I want to know, is the plugin’s icons can be customed? If not, I will not waste my time trying on it. Thank you.
