Re: new bitmaps

 

Wayne,
I have already done:
- point 4
- fixed icon margins in KiCad
- fixed the two missing icons in KiCad
- I need some time to find a good hovering shadowing
- the pngcrush does not work with some icons (I am not really sure how
to solve this...)
- I have changed some icons so that they do not look like a traffic
lights in the night.
I'll submit a patch soon
cheers
Fabrizio
