Hi Gayan,

I would suggest you simply use the magnifier emoji (🔍) in the label. It's provided by the system, consistent with other apps, scales well... 

Cheers

Hi All,

If you can use emoji ⌛ should be good.

 

I have few questions:

- How i can reuse icons from the platform ? 

platform:/plugin/plugin-name/package-containing-icon/iconname.png is the url you can use

 

- And Is there a hour glass icon already in platform which i can use in my plugin ?

I'm not aware of such.

 

- If i'm adding my own icons can i add svg ? How to load them as Images ?

SWT supports SVG (IMAGE_SVG ) since 4.14  like any other image format but only on GTK [1]. It would be nice if implementations for Mac/Win are added but these are not there yet.

Hope that helps
