932235 - new email link icon

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox Graveyard :: SocialAPI, defect)

Description

[Shane Caraveo (:mixedpuppy)]

We need a new email link icon that is different than the share icon, since both may be visible.

Actually, how bug 879982 is currently implemented, they can't be visible at the same time. Might still make sense to have a separate icon of course.

Yeah, I just commented in there.  Sorry to run you in circles, but right now it doesn't make sense to conflate share and email until share also handles the default case that is being added in bug 879982.  So it should be possible for both buttons to be enabled.

Note that current implementation does not only change icon direction but also text in overflow mode. When the new icon ships it mus be ensured that the text is right again in overflow.

I guess some kind of envelop icon would be nice. Might make a concept icon.

I know some kind of mail icon would be preferred, but this icon is similar to a compose mail icon. Posting a black icon after this one.

This is not really Firefoxy looking, but it's still useful right ?

Sorry, end of the description :
This is an envelope style icon. It's made for Windows 8.
If you need a black glyph, just ask.

I think Mike Maslaney is in charge of the icons now.

I apologize for the weirdest diff I've ever seen. I only touched the email link icon rules, but instead of moving those it's moved a bunch of other stuff around it...

Yes, that is a weird diff. It looks like you just moved the rules so that they would be in sprite-sheet order.

Aye. And updated the rect()s but yeah. No idea why diff did something that weird. Diff -w wasn't any better.
