http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1039994 Bug ID: 1039994 Summary: Different icons for different development patterns Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: All OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Patterns Assignee: coolo@suse.com Reporter: moritzrakow@web.de QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Created attachment 725775 --> http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/attachment.cgi?id=725775&action=edit Patterns for Development displayed in graphical installer; IMO identical icons make the desired pattern harder to find. The following development patterns all have the same “brickwall” icon: * Base Development * c/c++ Development * Tools for Packaging with Open Build Service * RPM Build Environment * Java Development * Linux Kernel Development * Perl Development * Python3 Development * Python Development * Qt 5 Development * Ruby Development * Web Development * YaST Development * Tcl/Tk Development These are also typically displayed next to each other (screenshot of example attached). Using the same icon for all of those defeats the purpose of icons as visual identifiers. Many of the programming languages/environments/toolkits have recognisable logos. In my opinion, they should be used as part of the icon where possible. This helps to quickly select the preffered patterns. Possible difficulty: trademarks. ## Build date and hardware Snapshot 20170516 on VirtualBox 5 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
