Added checkboxes for whoever does this. Our tagging system is relatively quick, but this could still take a few minutes. 😅

[moovida]

:-) is there something I can do to help? (apart of adding checkboxes next time). A pull request?

[JamesCoyle]

Unfortunately this is a manual process for the core team so not much else you can do. I made a start but don't really have time to do any more at the minute.

[moovida]

Ok, no rush here, so thanks.

I added the GIS tag to everything but the folder-* icons. Seems like a bit of a stretch to include all these. They are not closely related to GIS in my opinion.

There is no table-large-minus, I guess you meant table-large-remove?

What about the following icons? If e.g. most layer icons are tagged with GIS, shouldn't we include the remaining ones as well?

• layers-triple
• layers-triple-outline
• magnify-* (filled with modifier)
• vector-bezier
• vector-polyline-* (with modifier: plus, minus, edit, remove)
• vector-circle-variant
• map-marker-remove-variant
• home-map-marker
• palette

Additionally, what about the following icons?

• ruler
• ruler-square-compass
• ruler-square
• tape-measure
• earth-box
• earth-box-off
• *-rotate-* icons?

Well, it is used to reference a project. So open project etc. I could not find a project icon. If someone has an idea, I will give it a try to create a new icon for project. But without a different project icon, I think the folder icon is a quite well accepted icon for that purpose. And it has an open and close version. I am very keen to discuss this, since I would like to have a project icon.

Oh, you are right, sorry.

shouldn't we include the remaining ones as well?

• layers-triple
• layers-triple-outline

I was in doubt whether to add those or not. In the end I decided to not in order to give one workflow. But you might be right. It is better to add them and let the user choose.

• magnify-* (filled with modifier)

Same as above.

• vector-bezier

While this is a graphical applications icon, I've never seen a GIS having such a functionality. But it sure would not hurt to add it.

• vector-polyline-* (with modifier: plus, minus, edit, remove)
• vector-circle-variant

I only now notice that for polyline I forgot the modifiers. Yes, those are necessary.

• map-marker-remove-variant
• home-map-marker
• palette

Yes, agreed.

Additionally, what about the following icons?

• ruler
• ruler-square-compass
• ruler-square
• tape-measure
• earth-box
• earth-box-off
• -rotate- icons?

Ok, I definitely missed those. They would be good to have. I would just leave out the phone-rotate-*, but the others look relevant.

Thank you.

[Templarian]

Kind of agreed. Lets not include folders in this tag. The rest seem fine.

Updated the list to remove the checkbox for those.

[moovida]

Goes fine by me. I will open a question about ideas for a project icon.

[JamesCoyle]

I believe these are all done now?
