once icons size is changed to square, further testing will be easier, eg
- add border to all icons
- adjust lines, sizes, etc

Great job, user0

• Qt Forum: HiDPI and SVG icon resolution
• Open App Library Project: A Guide to Using Icon Themes in Qt on All Platforms
• Stack Overflow: svg icons appears pixelated on high DPI

OSB Sudio is an open source project which is also based on Qt. The themes consist of QSS and SVG files.

I was going to post a new thread, but this is closely related so I'll add my comment here instead.

It would be nice to make the ratings icons more visible, both on the thumbnails and the full screen view. In full screen view, the histogram overlaps the rating:



Hint - It's behind the blue histogram.

Maybe put a contrasting background behind the star?

Thanks.

Variant "A" is OK. I think it's more readable than "B".

single letter is better than?

Single letters are more readable when the size is small.
The complete "IPTC, XMP, etc" are better when the icons are large, otherwise they are difficult to read.

Yes, my old eyes agree

I suggest these two versions of the info.png file :

1)info_color_initial

(you can right click and "Save image as" ... info.png)
Xmp are green

.

2) info_color_text.png
But this one requires young eyes

It seems that since adding the “Number of pages” icon or the second ‘Companion’ icon, my color image “info.png” no longer works very well.
At least a 12 x 12 pixel square must be added to the right.

Why two Companion icons ? (Compagnon pour la traduction en Français)
