icon-slicer is a utility for generating icon themes and libXcursor cursor themes. The inputs to icon-slicer are conceptually: A) a set of multi-layer images, one for each size B) a XML theme description file Each image contains all the cursors arranged in a grid; for cursors the layers are: - a layer with a dot for the hotspot of each cursor - the main image or first animation frame for multi-frame animated cursors - the second animation frame for multi-frame animated cursors - ... For icons, the layers are: - a layer with the images - an optional layer with attachment points for emblems - an optional layer with boxes for embedding text into icons In practice, since loading of multilayer images is not supported by standard image libraries, each layer is input as a separate image file. The theme description file contains, among other things, information about the source images to read, the location of each named cursor or icon within the grid, and a set of aliases from names to other names.

icon-slicer is a utility for generating icon themes and libXcursor cursor
|
|
themes.
|
|
|
|
The inputs to icon-slicer are conceptually:
|
|
|
|
A) a set of multi-layer images, one for each size
|
|
B) a XML theme description file
|
|
|
|
Each image contains all the cursors arranged in a grid; for cursors the
|
|
layers are:
|
|
|
|
- a layer with a dot for the hotspot of each cursor
|
|
- the main image or first animation frame for multi-frame animated cursors
|
|
- the second animation frame for multi-frame animated cursors
|
|
- ...
|
|
|
|
For icons, the layers are:
|
|
|
|
- a layer with the images
|
|
- an optional layer with attachment points for emblems
|
|
- an optional layer with boxes for embedding text into icons
|
|
|
|
In practice, since loading of multilayer images is not supported by standard
|
|
image libraries, each layer is input as a separate image file.
|
|
|
|
The theme description file contains, among other things, information about the
|
|
source images to read, the location of each named cursor or icon within the
|
|
grid, and a set of aliases from names to other names.
