[FEATURE] Tool to help create and modify icon libraries

It would be great if there was a tool (or exchange view, in-built tool would be better though) to create and modify icon libraries.
It's a pain always having to edit the icon resource file directly on the server to modify these.

I'll probably build a Perspective View at some point, but an inbuilt tool would be super handy!

Is the tricky part getting the file format right?

Nah, it's not tricky, it's just not convenient. It'd be nice to just be able to drag in a new svg to add in. It's all about being lazy :slight_smile:

Something like the Image Management tool would be nice.

Interesting.
I'd say an ideas post would be good.

If I get some free time, maybe I'll add something to Ignition Extensions.

What's this "free time" of which you speak?

Maybe, I'll try my hand at it. Might be good practice.

The tricky part will be sending/receiving the icons file from the gateway, I imagine. The UI work in the designer would be pretty trivial.

Has bare-bones RPC to push/pull icon files, but no exposed UI beyond viewing the raw XML files at present.
