Dev Build 2178

#1

Dev Build 2178 is out now, with a long awaited new icon, done by The Iconfactory. Also in this build are a few misc tweaks, and several user-submitted vintage mode changes (thanks!).

I’m planning on turning this into a new beta soon, please let me know of any outstanding issues from this series of dev builds, especially in relation to auto indent.

Would love to see that in hi res :smile: Also, any other near miss contenders.

I like the isometric / button look but not sure about the S. Seems a bit out of place, being so soft and round amongst the hard edges of the slab.

The new icon looks blurry at smaller image sizes:

I think its the glow.

I’m personally not a great fan of the icon, but just having one that’s easily distinguishable from Terminal is such a big bonus that it’s a welcome change :smile:

Yeah but I’m so sorry, why orange or even green again? It feels whimsy.
Shouldn’t the icon maintain some continuity ? i.e. matte gray and darker gray

EDIT: May as well make the icon a preference as well.

I’m not sure if i like the new Icon, here is why:

First: Why is the Icon a Button? I think the Icon should somehow describe the program, actually it does just add some confusion.

Second I would look for something more time-less. This Icon looks nice, because it leverages some design-trends from the last years. They are even today a bit cheesy already. (We call this hipster?) The old Icon wasn’t visually that great, but surely more time-less - thus a better icon than the new one. IMHO :smile:

I actually quite like this icon, although the white bit looks a bit out of place? I don’t know. Either way it’s much better than the original IMHO.

Regarding the icon: click :smile:

The new icon is… aa… OK I guess.
I much prefer the other one.
The new one is not sublime, but rather ostentatious.

Would it be possible in the next build to have both so we can choose?

Hmm… I figured out what feels “off” about the new icon:

The “S” reminds me a little bit of Comic Sans.

Sublime Edit is way to awesome to draw this comparison.
