UI Theme:

    1. Pick several exotic colors at (https://color.adobe.com/) using the eyedropper in Rhino.
    1. Select 3-4 color combinations, excluding the dark mode, to be shipped with the Rhino release.
    1. Command Color Customization on: Command type text (existing), sub-command (capital) _Curve _*Degree (‘D’ has a color)

Icon Design:

  • Color: Find a universal color(s) that fit the UI theme.

  • Graphics: If want to refresh, find a graphic designer at the freelancer’s market.

Unless new icons are created, it is a waste of time to concentrate on icon colors that fit the user interface. It’s like putting an LV purse on a girl who lacks quality.

Update:

Simply set the theme to dark/light, and the icons will adapt to these two themes (the bottom line). If Rhino wants to go even further, select icon colors that are best suited to the remaining 3-4 themes.

Don’t listen to everyone; it’s not feasible mathematically in this case.

Addition: Custom Icons
Let’s make things arrogantly elegant. - ?

Method 1: Preferred

  1. Design icons in Rhino Modeling Space
  2. Copy To Icon Editor, similar to CopyToClipboard command

Method 2:

  1. Model directly within an icon editor environment, similar to Rhino Modeling environment, using fundamental tools like Curves, Snap, and primitive geometries.

Combine components of the GH and Rhino icons, like the GH curve and the surface sections, because Rhino and GH have comparable features.
