# Setup inkscape * import the inkscape palette in the Tools folder. how?: * copy other/aleta-inkscape.gpl to: * flatpak inkscape version: `~/.var/app/org.inkscape.Inkscape/config/inkscape/palettes` * native inkscape version: `~/.config/inkscape/palettes`. # Design * the position of the icon will fit in the hints. * the drawing must be white. * the final icon must be only paths. * the minimal width is a square of the grid. preferably make -2 squares lines- as minimum. * if the icon is complex, simplify it, * please use a color that is aproximated to the original; if the original icon shows many colors, decide by yourself what are the best color to use. ## folder design * instead of the template.svg, use the template-folder.svg. * in that template are two hints more; they are for the subicon. * the pink is the limit of the icon. * the red is the limit of the icon's stroke. # subicons and folder * the subicon of an icon that use the subicon template need to have a stroke of 1 px, the same color of the background, the order: "makers, stroke, fill", and it need to be converted to path. ## Note: if you have questions about how to draw icons, contact me on my telegram.
