Use common naming conventions for icon assets
Try to name files so that related assets will group together inside a directory when they are sorted alphabetically. In particular, it helps to use a common prefix for each icon type. For example:
Asset Type | Prefix | Example |
---|---|---|
Icons | ic_ |
ic_star.png |
Launcher icons | ic_launcher |
ic_launcher_calendar.png |
Menu icons | ic_menu |
ic_menu_archive.png |
Status bar icons | ic_stat_notify |
ic_stat_notify_msg.png |
Tab icons | ic_tab |
ic_tab_recent.png |
Dialog icons | ic_dialog |
ic_dialog_info.png |
Note that you are not required to use a shared prefix of any type — doing so is for your convenience only.
