bflatasticandClaude Opus 5.5 512e96e7c8 M14.3: the dragon app icon is the brand mark
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.

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.

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.
