New Pictos Icons
The Pictos icon library has been incorporated into the Ext.NET Triton theme (Issue #1310).
Ext.NET Pictos is a set of 94 high-quality icons and the full list of icons are available for review at this link.
As a feature of only the Triton theme, to use the Pictos icons, please ensure your app Theme is configured to use Triton. Example:
<ext:ResourceManager runat=”server” Theme=”Triton” />
A Pictos icon can be configured by setting the GlyphSpec
or IconCls
properties.
In the case with GlypSpec setting, please configure with a unicode character code and the Pictos font-family separated by the @
symbol. For example, the Pictos Anchor icon has the x0061
code:
<ext:Button
runat="server"
Text="Pictos Anchor"
GlyphSpec="x0061@Pictos"
/>
As for IconCls
setting, you should set pictos pictos-{iconName}
:
<ext:Button
runat="server"
Text="Pictos Anchor"
IconCls="pictos pictos-anchor"
/>
