The rounded corners and bold 1 are not very breeze like, so I don't think so, unless he changes his design. Unless you still plan to do the icon yourself, you should probably hand off responsibility for the patch to someone else.

Sorry for the confusion, as I'm new to this I really need help and aren't able to do this alone, just just wanted to bring some attention to this and learn how to work with KDE. Thanks for all help, should we now use t-ask's first icon(the right one) or something else?

No problem, it's just unfortunate that you picked an issue where other people already had their own ideas planned. If there weren't more than 1 design to look at, it would be easier for me to work with you 1-on-1. Why don't you try making an icon for an app you like that doesn't already have an icon in Breeze Icons? Not Firefox, Thunderbird or proprietary software (although there might be some exceptions). If you have questions, bring them up in the VDG chat.

This can be done in the system tray widget instead of making a separate icon for off. Ever notice how the notifications icon is grey when it's not active?

Sorry, I don't understand, never had noticed anything special with the notifications.

Top icon is for notifications (partly transparent), bottom icon is for Redshift (100% opacity)

[...] is it just me or is the transparent icon more like grey?

It's not just you, but that's how partly transparent black on a white background is supposed to look.

Okay, I get it, what should we do now?

We only make input-numlock-on, no off version

There is one issue I'm not sure about. The user might feel pressured to check something if the symbol is stroked as it fells like "something is wrong". In that case I would suggest just using the ON version and make it 50% transparent in OFF mode.

I agree, it isn't even an caps-lock-off key. A 50% tranparent icon would fit better

Hmm, still I somehow like the stroked version, while I wouldn't recommend using it this particular case. Even the transparent version can easily be controlled the disabled state of this icon object. Currently, I think it would be good to add both icons to Breeze iconset, just in case there is another use case for it some day. I added all the other mockups I did just to let you know.

Hi, I created some icons a week ago, just didn't post them as @arvidhansson was already on the task.

They are not polished as you can see from the screenshot. The left version symbolizes a lock, while the right one, which I like more, symbolizes a keyboard key.

That "1" is too blurry. Did you use the font tool or did you draw it with the pen or rectangle tools?

What type of item is it(https://hig.kde.org/style/icon.html)? Is there any way to download the current image?
