Slint Kit Documentation

Icons

KitIcon

Original vector icon selected from a typed set.

Original vector icon selected from a typed set.
Native screenshot of the same example, rendered with Skia.

Set kind: IconKind.check and ink from the theme’s semantic color. For an action without text, use KitIconButton with an accessible name.

Paths share a 16-unit grid and scale as a Slint Path. An icon alone provides neither interaction nor an action name.

Complete example

This complete Slint file is a visual composition used to produce the screenshot above. Internal strings without a label property retain the kit’s default language; system dialogs follow the host platform. Projected state and callbacks requesting a decision need host wiring; the standalone fixture does not supply that controller. Set up the Rust project, then see the typed controller application for working editing, validation and selection.
