Create your own unique icons to identify custom brushes.
There is a comprehensive set of default icons you can use to identify your custom brushes. However, try creating your own icons. This topic provides instructions and criteria on how to create custom brush icons.
Each icon you create must be a PNG image file that is 32 x 32 pixels. A custom brush icon not matching these criteria does not appear.
For each icon, create three image files:
One image
of the icon itself, given a descriptive name. For example, MyBrush.png. This file name appears
in the Icons list
of the Identify Custom Brush window.
One image
for the icon in rollover state (that is, for when the cursor passes
over it). This file must use the same name as the first icon, but
with “_over” added to the end (use the underscore character "_"
and not a space). For example, MyBrush_over.png.
One image
for the icon in selected state (that is, for when it is the current
brush). This file must use the same name, with “_press” added to
the end. For example, MyBrush_press.png.
There
is a sample icon called "Sample," visible in the Icon list
of the Identify Custom Brush window.
This sample icon provides three image files for the icon in its three states. Find these files, named "Sample.png", "Sample_over.png", and “Sample_press.png", in the following folder:
For PC:
C:\Documents and Settings\[ytour login name]\application Data\Autodesk\SketchBook Pro\4.0\BrushPresetIcons
You will have to create a folder called BrushPresetIcons.
For Mac:
[your user folder]/Library/Application Support/Autodesk/SketchBook Pro/4.0/BrushPresetIcons/
You will have to create a folder called BrushPresetIcons.
Store any icon images you create in this same folder to see them in the Identify Custom Brush window.
It is a good idea to design the icon no larger than 28 x 28 pixels, so that there is a 2-pixel margin around it.
If you would like to match the RGB values used for other product icons, follow the values listed:
For the rollover state, an orange halo spills over the icon image. For the selected state, the orange is contained within the image.
