Design a set of visualization mode (wireframe/hidden/flat/translucent/opaque) icons #3BRL-CAD
Status: ClosedTime to complete:
120 hrs
Mentors: Sean
BRL-CAD is a 3D modeling system with a variety of ways to visualize geometry including default wireframes, hidden-line drawing, translucent shaded, and opaque shaded. We need good application icons to indicate most of those methods.
Define a set of icons that we can use in our main GUI application (e.g., on a top toolbar). Submit the icons in a raw editable format (e.g., SVG, AI, PSD, or XCF) as well as an overview of them all in PNG format.
The icons should be scalable at least from 16x16 through 128x128 while maintaining a clean appearance.
Search the web for examples of what those different visualization modes look like.

I would like to work on this task.
This task has been assigned to Marc Tannous. You have 90 hours to complete this task, good luck!
The work on this task is ready to be reviewed.
One of the mentors has sent this task back for more work. Talk to the mentor(s) assigned to this task to satisfy the requirements needed to complete this task, submit your work again and mark the task as complete once you re-submit your work.
These are looking fantastic Marc, but a few adjustments/issues noticed:
Consistency - I want the icons to be different. Their concern is to tell the user what's going on. If everything looks too much alike, clarity is lost and defeats the purpose. Plus, that is a really nice angle to convey what wireframe is all about, showing all its sides.
Hidden - New icon uploaded.
Translucent/Transparent - A general consensus among users that have worked in graphic editing programs, the black/white tile symbolizes transparency and is easy to spot, I'd really like if I could stick to this one as I really thing it conveys the message clearly.
Flat - Swapping it with the current opaque would work, therefore I uploaded a new icon for opaque.
I hope you understand where I'm coming from.
Regards,
Marc
