Overview

Icons are a fundamental concept shared throughout AppBoard in many different visualizations such as lists, tables, and maps. AppBoard ships with a broad set of generic icons and this page details how to add additional icons.

Please note this page refers to icons as defined by setting a Default Icon or via Icon Filters. Status Shapes are not icons as such but automatically rendered shapes with colour tints applied. The set of shapes is defined in code and not user extensible.

Icon Chooser

When configuring a widget that supports icons the Icon Chooser is used to make a selection, as shown below. The Keyword Search can be used to search through tags associated with each icon. This will be explained in the sections below detailing how to add custom icons.

Icon Chooser dialog

The Google Map widget and Vector Map widgets have a specific set of icons only used for those widgets. The list of images that appear in the Icon Chooser will differ when editing those widgets.
