Icons and Cursors.
Icons and Cursors can be loaded into WIRED using the WiredImage class.
Icons and Cursors are made from Adobe Illustrator files using the following procedure:
- Use Adobe Illustrator 9.
- Save the .ai files in Illustrator version 9 format (binary).
- Use a ...Cursor.ai file for cursors (256, 256), other ai files for icons (128, 128).
- Stay on the grid.
- Use "Save for Web" to create ...Cursor32.png and ...16 files for cursors and icons.
- Use "antialiasing", though for cursors in JDK 1.4 they may not look so nice
since on some platforms the antialising between alpha-transparent pixels and the background
fails to work, see
SUN bug 4842475.
- Use PNG24, which has alpha-level transparency.
- Use Transparency.
- Use Clip to ArtBoard.
- Use 32 or 16 for size (for MacOS we may want to make 64 and 128 size versions also).
