File contents

Create a SketchUp Toolbar Icon or Cursor Image

SketchUp extensions distribute to both Windows and macOS users. Each platform uses a different vector format for toolbar icons and cursors.

Format and sizes

Windows: .svg
macOS: .pdf
Large icons: 32x32 including 4px empty padding between artwork and image edge.
Small icons: 24x24 including 4px empty padding between artwork and image edge.

Both formats should be shipped with the extension. Write a small utility that picks the right extension at runtime and reuse it for each command.

Authoring workflow

Author the icon as .svg.
Convert to .pdf for macOS using Inkscape CLI.

Inkscape may not be on PATH. Use the default installation paths:

Windows: "/c/Program Files/Inkscape/bin/inkscape.exe"
macOS: /Applications/Inkscape.app/Contents/MacOS/inkscape

Conversion command:

inkscape input.svg --export-filename=output.pdf

Runtime icon selection

Provide a helper that resolves the correct file extension for the current platform and reuse it from every command registration site, instead of branching in each place.
