extend battery names to be more fine-grained #257
Comments
Adwaita included als more fine-grained battery icons recently: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/adwaita-icon-theme/-/tree/master/Adwaita/scalable/status |
So are we doing this in tens? |
Gonna move this to the power indicator since it's the only place battery icons are used |
Symbolics are merged now. So we have a couple options for device icons in the menu. We can either:
I'm honestly inclined to either do the levelbar or the symbolic icon because it's so much less work. Maybe in GTK4 we can also do some fancy custom widgets to do a more compact design like: -- |
Problem
We have 16px of width in symbolic icons and 24px and 38px vertically in color icons to work with for battery levels, but we're currently only using 4 levels. We could be providing much more fine-grained battery levels if we wanted
Proposal
If we stretched the 48px battery icons a couple pixels, we'd have numbers divisible by 8 instead. We could be twice as accurate in showing battery levels
Prior Art
The freedesktop spec only includes
battery-low
(defined as 20%) andbattery-caution
(defined as 40%)—Which are apparently being used incorrectly right now. The other icon names we're currently usinggood
,full
, andempty
are just convention from GNOME.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
