The folder "image_sources" is planned to store source files from which icons
|
||
|
|
or glyphs used by Lazarus or packages are derived. This is particularly
|
||
|
|
important because, starting with version 1.8, Lazarus supports images with
|
||
|
|
150% and 200% magnification relativ to the standard size. Although the
|
||
|
|
IDE can upscale the standard image size to the new sizes a loss in image
|
||
|
|
quality will be observed which can be considerable in some cases. To avoid this,
|
||
|
|
these images can be redrawn. If icons and glyphs (normally png files) are
|
||
|
|
generated from vector files, or if multiple images are
|
||
|
|
combined into a multi-layer "bitmap" file (e.g. by using gimp), then these
|
||
|
|
source files can be stored here. If changes will be needed later the png images
|
||
|
|
needed by the resource building scripts can easily be regenerated this way.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The folder contains two sub-folders
|
||
|
|
- lazarus: this one is intended for images distributed along with lazarus
|
||
|
|
- ccr: this one is for images used by any of the ccr components or applications.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To facilitate finding of images and components/applications further subfolders
|
||
|
|
should be introduced to resemble the directory tree of the corresponding
|
||
|
|
installation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The folder of every "destination" (component package, or application) should
|
||
|
|
contain a readme file explaining the source of images taken from third-party
|
||
|
|
collections.
