Sugar Icon Format

• All icons used by Sugar should use the SVG format.
• The following entities should be defined to allow to dynamically modify the icons.

<!ENTITY fill_color "#FFFFFF">
<!ENTITY stroke_color "#000000">

• Size, colors and layout should respect the HIG guidelines

Example

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd" [
  <!ENTITY fill_color "#FFFFFF">
  <!ENTITY stroke_color "#000000">
]>
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="50" height="50">
  <rect x="1" y="1" width="48" height="48" style="fill:&fill_color;;stroke:&stroke_color;;stroke-width:2"/>
</svg>

Shouldn't that have a surface height and width of 45, and a stroke-width of 4.5, to make sure it looks ok at XS. See OLPC Human Interface Guidelines/The_Sugar_Interface/Icons#Icon Design Guidelines and OLPC Human Interface Guidelines/The Sugar Interface/Layout Guidelines.

Perhaps:

<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="45" height="45">
  <rect x="3" y="3" width="40" height="40" style="fill:&fill_color;;stroke:&stroke_color;;stroke-width:4.5"/>
</svg>
