Misleading trash icon in start page
« on: April 06, 2020, 04:27:04 pm »
Hello,
I think that the trash icons in _Recent projects_ and _Recent files_ in the start page are are misleading. They suggest that clicking on them will result in project files being moved to rash and no merely in them being removed from the list. I think that a generic `X` icon would go better here like https://material.io/resources/icons/?icon=clear&style=baseline. If you agree, I can make a patch for this. Other IDEs show a small `X` for that. Please see the attached screenshot of PyCharm.

This is the project where we handle icons: https://github.com/specialmart/cb-icons
Keep in mind that you have to provide icons in different sizes (see the start here folder).
They aren't used yet, but we'll need them in the future.

Hmmm. I think that `fileclose` could be used.

Patches welcome. I've spent a lot of time doing icons and I need to do something else. :)
