Designing IconsΒΆ

Once the machine is broken down into parts, icons representing each part can be designed.

See FreeCAD Wiki: Artwork Guidelines for recommendations on how to design the icons.

Once designed, add the icons to the OSE FreeCAD Icons page for documentation purposes.

If you lack a designer, or desire to create icons, then you may temporarily use existing FreeCAD icons that adhere to FreeCAD Artwork Guidelines.

However, this approach is not recommended for a long-term solution, and care must be taken to design appropriate icons for each part that are distinct from other icons in the FreeCAD UI.
