Re: Icons for Part and Group
As for the secondary objective. To establish possible Body/Part/Assembly icon strategy. This is the combination that gathered the most consensus:
Re: Icons for Part and Group
Why not to create a new post asking for more opinions and probably we will find new ideas or a better/polished ones?
I have the feeling that not enough people has seen this thread...

Re: Icons for Part and Group
As far as i am concerned we have reached consensus and from this quest scope point of view it is therefore resolved. As when i looked at the votes gathered in the last infographic the result was just too consolidated to ignore that fact. In addition i could left out the vote for Part A as it was latter changed by the same voter. But i said i will include all votes and that is what i did in the end. If anybody else feels this effort needs to go in more (endless) loops go for it. I got involved in this thread mainly to see if consensus can be reached. And to my surprise and in my opinion it was reached rather quickly. In the end that works for me and hopefully we will have more of that in the future!

We could try to move to the new icons in FC 017 build and see those getting a larger audience
Re: Icons for Part and Group
I didn't shared my observations yet about the selections.
I must say that the Part icon is adding ambiguity involved in a subtle way. You can easily overlook the fact it is not exactly a representation of being an "one of" (therefore following the main characteristic of being a Part). Simplicity of the icons is convincing. The escalation from Body to Part and to Assembly is done by using the same base geometry. Color scheme is done in a way it makes it easy to determine what feature is being used (as for example all blue combination would make that harder).

Re: Icons for Part and Group
I had a some spare time to polish the icons and align them with @agryson's color scheme (os is Tango one?).
Now you can find more contrast in the blue design and maybe you prefer now to vote for this last version:

Re: Icons for Part and Group
Nice icons though!
But the Part one was yellow
Could you make the yellow one too?

Re: Icons for Part and Group
Yes the selected Part icon is yellow.
P.S. Therefore best to go with that for now.

Re: Icons for Part and Group
Of course yes, here you have them: I have solved two minor errors in the design also for the blue scheme so I'm attaching both of them.
Now you have them all, use as you wish and if you prefer me to PR them just show me where I have to place or update them.

Re: Icons for Part and Group
No not all yellow. This is what the vote returned and got high level of consensus:

Therefore i feel we should just do that. As for the PR i guess two options. Wait for @ickby to finish holiday or i guess go for it. If you need any help just ask (i will have time tomorrow). That is for Part icon. As for the Body icon i don't know. There is one already but the proposed one got high level of consensus.
