Re: Board setup icon

 

Hi Andrey,

I am inclined to agree, but the priority for me is to get *an* icon
there what doesn't overload an exciting metaphor, and wire it in to
the relevant places in the code. The icon can be further modified.

With respect to the options icons, you could do something like the
attached? Having a more distinct outline (i.e. not just a square) is
good.

I am also happy to take other people's SVGs and generate patches!

Cheers,

John
