Re: [Pharo-dev] Best way to access icons?

Smalltalk ui icons iconNamed: #protocolExtension. Still ugly, but I’m not happy with the idea of a selector-per-icon… they will never be enough and well… is like a monolithic vision. Not that what we have is much better, but you can consider it an iteration :) Esteban

Hi

For ages to access an icon we used: Smalltalk ui icons protocolPrivateIcon

Smalltalk ui icons returns an instance of ThemeIcons. After refactoring (case https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/16651 <https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/16651>) all methods to access icon (for example protocolPrivateIcon) were removed.

ThemeIcons>>#doesNotUnderstand: aMessage converts message sent to iconNamed: aMessage selector which works.

BUT we have this all over the image: <Screen Shot 2016-02-04 at 16.13.03.png>

So, what is the best practice to access icons to use in application?
