  • Replace PackageName with the name of the Pacakge and replace ThemeName with the Theme Name
Now, you might ask what is the difference between PackageName and ThemeName?
Well, if for example you want to publish two variants of your icons, one dark and one white but you do not want the user to seperately install them. Then, you would name the package MyTheme and include two themes Blackie and White thus creating two entries. More about this in the end
Creating Icons
  • Open up the Image Editor of your choice and create a new file having a resolution of 512x512
Note: Due to IconBundles, we just need to create the icons in one size and they get resized automaticaly :ghost:
Want to create rounded icons? Create them squared only, we will learn how to apply masks!
Exporting Icons
Note: All icons must be saved as *.png (Tip: This means you can even create partially transparent icons!)
  • All Icons must be saved in themeName.theme>IconBundles as bundleID-large.png
