, 09:12, 17 December 2019Replace old sugariconify.py with new version from sugarlabs
Save yourself some time. Don't make the mistake I made. Before you make an icon, see if it's already on the laptop!

There is also the start of a vector icon-drawing activity at http://dev.laptop.org/git/users/cscott/icon-draw-activity/ -- please adopt it and finish it off!

===The Script===
===The Script===
In order to streamline the process of creating sugar compatible icons, we provide the [[olpc:media: sugar-iconify.py | sugar-iconify]] script. This script takes an SVG file as input and outputs a new SVG (or SVGs) containing the proper entity definitions. It offers a number of command-line flags for performing variations on this process to fit smoothly into your workflow. You can view all of the available options by running <tt>sugar-iconify -h</tt> from the command line, or by viewing the dedicated [[olpc:Sugar-iconify | usage page]]. Some specific examples and use cases are illustrated below in more detail.

Here is an example of one way to do this by overlaying a gradient over the data-driven XO stroke and fill colors:
<pre><nowiki>
<?xml version="1.0" ?><!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC '-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN' 'http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd' [
<?xml version="1.0" ?><!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC '-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN' 'http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd' [
<!ENTITY stroke_color "#010101"><!ENTITY fill_color "#FF0000">]>
<!ENTITY stroke_color "#010101"><!ENTITY fill_color "#FF0000">]>
</g>
</g>
</svg>

</nowiki>
</nowiki></pre>
The "stop-color" properties of an SVG gradient will also accept the &stroke_color; and &fill_color; entities, if you want a gradient in the user's colors. For example, this shows two gradients between transparent and opaque versions of the child's stroke and fill colors:
<pre><nowiki>
<?xml version="1.0" ?><!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC '-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN' 'http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd' [
<!ENTITY stroke_color "#666">
<!ENTITY fill_color "#fff">
