Description V Stuart Foote 2019-03-01 18:03:58 UTC
On Windows 10 Ent 64-bit en-US working with Kendy's TB39 builds
Version: 6.3.0.0.alpha0+
Build ID: 5fe551931d49a64ca4ea793a5016c098e41e84cd
CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: default; VCL: win; 
Locale: en-US (en_US); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: CL

The new SVG icons/images for math elements don't seem to making it to the correct location in the offline help. 

Still seem to be using the old static/pixelated PNG icons built and placed in help/media/helpimg/starmath rather than parsing the new SVG which are being placed in help/media/icon-themes/starmath/res

Does the build path need a tweak to use the new SVG icons to build the icon cache dynamically?

Hi V Stuart Foote,
still reproducible in master ?
Comment 2 V Stuart Foote 2019-04-16 13:33:18 UTC
Still unresolved on Windows 10 64-bit en-US with TB39
Version: 6.3.0.0.alpha0+
Build ID: 25a28cee10736e8a72b40b5ab2d11dea8d5254c3
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: GL; VCL: win; 
Locale: en-US (en_US); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded

The static PNG icons still are being used, built and present in:

help/media/helpimg/starmath

the beautiful new SVG icons are also present, but are not being used to construct the new help pages, they are located in:

help/media/icon-themes/starmath/res

Something is just not linked up correctly to bring in the SVG icons.

Also, noticed in the Online New Help, the SVG are being used but that the glyph is not "animated" to enlarge on mouseover, and the default size is a bit to small otherwise.

reason is:

OK, so can the now static size be increased for readability?

Lets open a bug for that.

checked recent TB77 build of trunk against 7.6.0 (2023-02-16 c3bd52f) with its corresponding Helppack (en-US) installed to local system

The SVG versions of the help article icons are present now in the @ORIGIN/../help/media/helpimg/starmath

and the icons Help pages are well rendered in browser without pixelation at an enlarged readable size.  Likewise rendering remains good as the os/DE UI is scaled above 225% -- so scaling is nicely progressive.

So while bug 125178 is resolved => WF, this facet for use the SVG in the local/offline Help install is good.
