Summary0000830: Part Design Fillet and Chamfer icons should be different from the Part icons
DescriptionCurrently the same icons are used for the Fillet and chamfer tools from Part and Part Design workbenches.

Only, the tools work differently, which can lead to confusion.

Since Part Design is for solids only, I propose that the icon represents a cube instead of two surfaces. Attached is a first try for the fillet one, to be refined. Chamfer to follow later. Contributions are welcomed.

The only thing that seems wrong is the shadow of the icons.

Yes, I mentioned it in the forum topic. It's because the cube is too big, the shadow extends outside the icon's borders and thus is cropped. Solution would be to reduce the cube's size to get the full shadow.

Which is why I wrote "to be refined". :-)

Yes, they look a lot better... but! Sorry I just thought about it. I think the colors need to be changed.

- the cube's faces need to be the same dark blue as the pocket and groove icons. Right now the blue is too light.
- the fillet and chamfer need to be red, since in a sense it removes material from the solid like for pocket and groove.

What do you think? In any case maybe we should discuss further before committing new versions.

Added two new versions:

PartDesign_Chamfer_v3.svg
PartDesign_Fillet_v3.svg

Completely redone to match Pocket icon style:

- no shadow
- perspective cube
- dark blue gradient for main object
- dark red gradient for feature

Sorry for the deleted/re-attached files. Previous ones had bad gradients.

Added PartDesign_Fillet_v4.svg with all the edges dark blue. Not sure which one is best: edges around feature red, or blue...

minor suggestion to filet v3 (now v5) - reflected transient color on red fill, to look,

also, rotated linear color on chamfer.

Hi,

maybe this should be assigned to Yorik, for master's review. Also, werner, I saw that you have added this icons, but it looks like part design chamfer command is still using part_chamfer icon.

Regards,
Petar

ok, I have just compiled, and it seemed to me red border looked ugly when comiled - so I re-added blue outline, and expanded size of chamfer/fillet.

I just got your changes in the PPA. They look much better with the enlarged fillet/chamfer and the blue outline. Thanks!

I think this "bug" may be closed. Or maybe we wait for our icon guru's (Yorik) seal of approval? :-P

Yes, I think Yorik should approve them. He will probably have few tips to make them better. :-)
