Example Usage

​
Basic Button Icons

JButton saveBtn = new JButton("Save", JIcon.SAVE);
JButton deleteBtn = new JButton("Delete", JIcon.DELETE);
JButton editBtn = new JButton("Edit", JIcon.EDIT);

​
Icon-Only Buttons

JButton btn = new JButton(null, JIcon.SEARCH);
btn.setPrefSize(32, 32);
btn.addClass("btn-icon");

​
Labels with Icons

JLabel userLabel = new JLabel("John Doe");
userLabel.setGraphic(JIcon.PERSON.view());

JLabel emailLabel = new JLabel("[email protected]");
emailLabel.setGraphic(JIcon.EMAIL.view());

​
Menu Items

MenuItem saveItem = new MenuItem("Save");
saveItem.setGraphic(JIcon.SAVE.view());

MenuItem deleteItem = new MenuItem("Delete");
deleteItem.setGraphic(JIcon.DELETE.view());

​
Custom Styling

Node icon = JIcon.STAR.view();
icon.setStyle("-fx-fill: gold; -fx-scale-x: 1.5; -fx-scale-y: 1.5;");

​
Status Indicators

public Node getStatusIcon(String status) {
    return switch (status) {
        case "success" -> JIcon.CHECK_CIRCLE.view();
        case "error" -> JIcon.ERROR.view();
        case "warning" -> JIcon.WARNING.view();
        default -> JIcon.INFO.view();
    };
}

​
Dynamic Icon Selection

public JIcon getFileIcon(String extension) {
    return switch (extension.toLowerCase()) {
        case "pdf" -> JIcon.DESCRIPTION;
        case "jpg", "png", "gif" -> JIcon.IMAGE;
        case "zip", "rar" -> JIcon.FOLDER;
        case "mp3", "wav" -> JIcon.VOLUME_UP;
        case "mp4", "avi" -> JIcon.PLAY_ARROW;
        default -> JIcon.FILE;
    };
}

​
Toolbar

HBox toolbar = new HBox(8);

JButton[] buttons = {
    new JButton(null, JIcon.ADD),
    new JButton(null, JIcon.EDIT),
    new JButton(null, JIcon.DELETE),
    new JButton(null, JIcon.REFRESH)
};

for (JButton btn : buttons) {
    btn.addClass("btn-icon", "btn-ghost");
    btn.setPrefSize(36, 36);
}

toolbar.getChildren().addAll(buttons);

​
Navigation Menu

VBox menu = new VBox(4);

String[][] items = {
    {"Dashboard", "DASHBOARD"},
    {"Users", "PERSON"},
    {"Settings", "SETTINGS"},
    {"Log Out", "LOG_OUT"}
};

for (String[] item : items) {
    JIcon icon = JIcon.valueOf(item[1]);
    JButton menuItem = new JButton(item[0], icon);
    menuItem.addClass("menu-item");
    menu.getChildren().add(menuItem);
}

​
Styling Icons

All icons have the .j-icon style class: 
.j-icon {
    -fx-fill: currentColor;
    -fx-scale-x: 1.0;
    -fx-scale-y: 1.0;
}

/* Size variants */
.icon-sm .j-icon {
    -fx-scale-x: 0.875;
    -fx-scale-y: 0.875;
}

.icon-lg .j-icon {
    -fx-scale-x: 1.25;
    -fx-scale-y: 1.25;
}

/* Color variants */
.text-primary .j-icon {
    -fx-fill: #3b82f6;
}

.text-danger .j-icon {
    -fx-fill: #ef4444;
}

.text-success .j-icon {
    -fx-fill: #10b981;
}

​
Notes

  • All icons are 24×24 viewBox by default
  • Icons scale cleanly to any size
  • SVG paths are from Material Design Icons

  • Use -fx-fill CSS property to change color
  • Icons inherit text color when using currentColor
