The mark left of Home (and in the About box) is now the VectorCraft app icon, the engraved dragon from assets/app-icon/ (128 px PNG, include_bytes!), decoded once per context into a mipmapped texture and drawn at 22 pt with the icon's own rounded corners. The old code-drawn gradient square with a pen nib is removed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]>

# VectorCraft app icon
|
|
|
|
**Creature:** a regal engraved dragon, VectorCraft's mascot.
|
|
|
|
**Style:** an engraving-style portrait in the Crafting Apps owl template (the FilmCraft owl): a tight
|
|
head-and-shoulders portrait on a full-bleed field, no frame or roundel, with the body running off the tile.
|
|
|
|
**Palette** (exactly three colours):
|
|
|
|
| Colour | Hex | Used for |
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|
| Ink | `#0b0b0c` | line work and contour |
|
|
| Paper | `#efe9dc` | the figure |
|
|
| VectorCraft colour | `#e8573f` | the full-bleed field |
|
|
|
|
**Tile:** `viewBox="0 0 512 512"`, a rounded square with `rx=112`, clipped. The macOS files add Apple's
|
|
transparent margin (tile = 824/1024 of the canvas); Windows and Linux use the tile edge to edge.
|
|
|
|
**Provenance:** the owner's original ArtCraft drawing (2880 px, keyed to the palette), vectorised with
|
|
craftrules `assets/logo-options/_tools/vectorize_tile.py`. The drawing is kept in craftrules at
|
|
`craftrules/assets/app-icons/vectorcraft/source.png`, not here. `vectorcraft.svg` is the canonical
|
|
artwork. Licence: see `LICENSE.txt`.

|

|
## Files
|
|
|
|
| File | What | Used by |
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|
| `vectorcraft.svg` | master vector (traced at 2048 px, about 700 KB) | source for everything below |
|
|
| `vectorcraft-small.svg` | lighter vector (traced at 1024 px, about 370 KB) | `hicolor/scalable` |
|
|
| `vectorcraft-1024.png` | full tile, 1024 px | docs, store listings |
|
|
| `vectorcraft-macos-512.png` | tile with Apple margin, 512 px | runtime Dock icon (`apps/vectorcraft/src/main.rs`) |
|
|
| `vectorcraft.icns` | macOS icon set, 16 to 1024 px | `cargo xtask bundle` (`CFBundleIconFile`) |
|
|
| `vectorcraft.ico` | Windows icon, 16 to 256 px | `apps/vectorcraft/build.rs` (embedded in the `.exe`) |
|
|
| `hicolor/<size>/apps/ai.storyteller.vectorcraft.png` | Linux theme icons, 16 to 512 px; the 256 one is also the runtime icon on Windows and Linux, the 128 one the brand mark in the app bar and About box (`crates/ui-egui/src/brand.rs`) | `packaging/linux/ai.storyteller.vectorcraft.desktop` |
|
|
| `hicolor/scalable/apps/ai.storyteller.vectorcraft.svg` | Linux scalable icon | as above |
|
|
|
|
## How it reaches each OS
|
|
|
|
- **macOS:** the app sets the Dock / app-switcher icon at runtime (`ViewportBuilder::with_icon`); the
|
|
`.app` from `cargo xtask bundle` carries `vectorcraft.icns`.
|
|
- **Windows:** `build.rs` embeds `vectorcraft.ico` and VERSIONINFO with `winresource` (taskbar, Start
|
|
menu, Explorer, Alt-Tab); the runtime icon covers the title bar.
|
|
- **Linux:** install `packaging/linux/ai.storyteller.vectorcraft.desktop` to `share/applications/` and
|
|
`hicolor/` to `share/icons/`. The app sets its Wayland app ID / X11 class to
|
|
`ai.storyteller.vectorcraft`, so the dock matches the window to the launcher.
|
|
|
|
## Regenerate
|
|
|
|
Edit or replace `vectorcraft.svg` (and `vectorcraft-small.svg`), then run `packaging/icons.sh`
|
|
(needs `resvg`; `iconutil` on macOS for the `.icns`). It writes every PNG, the `.ico` (via
|
|
`cargo xtask ico`) and the `.icns`.
