Re: Tree view icon samples

Hello Team,

Below are the updates for TreeView Icons -

1. Fine tuned the icons - Database, Language, Primary and Foreign key, Unique Constraint

2. Designed new concept for - Casts and Converts, Trigger

3. Attached the color blind test result for "Primary and Foreign key", now I feel it is pretty evident to differentiate for blind user  

4. Attached "thought_process.png" where I have explained the thought process for newly proposed icons (referred:www.postgresql.org)

5. Added little depth to all icons to provide the Afforance of Click

Hi Ashesh,

I tried to eliminate the colour blind issue which might occur with the primary & foregin key icons.

But still I will use the app to test the colors, just let me know your opinion now.

Please do.

One more point: :-)

Icons for some nodes are missing here.

i.e. Partition table (introduced in 'Declarative Partition' patch), Materialized View, etc.

-- Thanks, Ashesh

I like them as well. The only comment I have is that the red icon on disconnected DB and corrupted DB are difficult to make out. They are clearly differentiable but the icon itself is unclear. 

A colour blind person may not be able to differentiate the primary & foreign key icons.

You mean pgAdmin colour brand :-). EDB is orange & black.

I like them - they look much more modern and stylish, but still fit with what they represent.

Other opinions please?

Good work!
