Automatic Theme for RetroArch & Lakka
About Automatic
Automatic is a theme that is inspired by the outline artwork on Nintendo's Super Famicom box and Apple's line drawings of 1984-2014 Mac models that were featured on the 30 Years of Mac site. Automatic builds on the work of the Systematic theme by using an outlined top-down system icon and media icons such as cartridges or discs. User interface icons use an outlined square to underscore the simplicity of the design.
Guidelines
Palette
- Icons use white (#ffffff). If you've ever created Monochrome icons, this should feel very familiar. Before January 2018, it was 5% gray (#2f2f2) but it was changed to white for recoloring in code, like Ozone and Monochrome.
- Use of gradients and translucency is prohibited. It's all about the outline.
Layout
- The icons should be set to a 256x256 canvas and should be centered on a 64x64 grid.
- The icon must have an 8px margin, effectively reducing the icon size to 240x240.
Style
- Icons design elements use an outline that is 4px thick.
- Snap design points to the grid wherever possible to provide maximum clarity and scalability.
Export
When converting from PDF source files, the SVG files can be created using [Alfrix’s conversion script] (https://forums.libretro.com/t/neoactive-retroactive-and-systematic-theme-support-and-feedback/9501/26) and PNG files are converted via the ImageMagick Mogrify command (mogrify -density 288 -resize 25% -format png *.pdf).
