Calligra/Icons/Shared icons
On this page we collect descriptions of the icons we need for KOffice. Rather than showing pictures of icons we describe the functionality they provide.
The icons are grouped in sections so they are easier to find. When adding new please consider which group to add them to, and possibly create a new group.
Only requirement is that they will be used by more than one KOffice application.

| dialog-no | button_no | A gdash '-' icon being a pair for dialog-ok (blue 'v' icon). Used in places like the property editor for 3-state mode, where yes/no/unknown states are provided. Currently the icon is drawn as a gray dash: File:Icons-KOffice wide icons-dialog-no.png It is recommended to use a neutral color and not red. In particular we did not decide to use dialog-cancel (/) or red 'x' to avoid suggestion that the selection as about deleting an item.
