Re: Overlay icons cosmetic update
you mean vector?
here is quick vector example for testing (.ai and .svg)
once icons size is changed to square, further testing will be easier, eg
- add border to all icons
- adjust lines, sizes, etc

Re: Overlay icons cosmetic update
I was going to post a new thread, but this is closely related so I'll add my comment here instead.
It would be nice to make the ratings icons more visible, both on the thumbnails and the full screen view. In full screen view, the histogram overlaps the rating:
Hint - It's behind the blue histogram.
Maybe put a contrasting background behind the star?
Thanks.

Re: Overlay icons cosmetic update
Variant "A" is OK. I think it's more readable than "B".

Re: Overlay icons cosmetic update
Single letters are more readable when the size is small.
The complete "IPTC, XMP, etc" are better when the icons are large, otherwise they are difficult to read.
