The 5.0+ icons looks worse on my system than the 4.34 icons #2311
Comments
I also don't understand why the "pixel perfect" branch was merged. It's obviously a degradation over the previous SVGs. |
are you on macos? |
After some forensic investigation (😅) over your screenshots, I see your icons are showing at 15x15px for some reason: Instead of the vscode default, which is 16x16px (the pixel perfect PR made icons align with a 16x16 grid): Default vscode css: I honestly don't know of any vscode setting that allow us to change the size of the icon alone without loading a custom css that specifically changes the icon's background-size property (you would need the loader extension and set |
I'm on Windows and Ubuntu. |
I just setup a fresh vscode on my PC and did nothing but install Material Icon Theme and switch to it. The issue persists. My monitor is 1920x1080 and I'm running KDE if that helps.
And the icons look identical on both OS's to you? |
Is that the desktop version of VS Code or the browser version? I've just tested it in a browser and all the icons look proper. This might be an issue that only affects desktop users (which is the majority). |
I'm using the Desktop version.
Looks the same here. Weird. I'm honestly clueless 😒 I've been reading antialiasing, GPU acceleration and some GPU configs might cause issues like this one, but idk... I think the fonts should look blurry too if that was the issue and it doesn't seem to be the case here. |
this is turning into a rabbit hole |
4.34.0:
5.1.0:
I don't mind the new designs, but where the old icons were clear and sharp, the new icons look blurry.
The obvious examples are the Node.js logo where the "JS" is clearly readable in the first screenshot but very blurry in the second,
.env
's appears darker due to the blurring, Tailwind's logo looks sort of squished, the.d.ts
icon has become a square with 2 border colours (one darker, one lighter), and PNPM's squares are now blurring into each other.This is not a criticism of the designs, I just think something is misconfigured. My instance of VSCode is running default settings for the explorer window and my zoom is set to 100% so I don't think this is an issue on my end.
I've been sticking to version 4.34 but I thought I'd make this issue because I'm sure other people are having this problem as well (whether they realise it or not).
