These might prove useful, although a lot of that depends on how permissive the licence is:

Re: Apple symbols
Man, they sure make it hard to find the license for those. I tried poking around for several minutes and came up empty.

Re: Apple symbols
I believe that the clearly Apple specific ones, like iPad icons and such, are licensed for use only on Apple platforms.FourthWorld wrote: ↑Fri Oct 06, 2023 3:22 pm Man, they sure make it hard to find the license for those. I tried poking around for several minutes and came up empty.
I don't see how you can copyright some of the other glyphs, like ones that are basic geometric shapes, or basically public domain things like a stop sign or player transport controls symbols (Play,Pause,Stop,FF,RW). Many of these icons have extremely similar equivalent icons in sets like Material Symbols, Font Awesome, etc.
There's an Apple app for perusing these symbols. I also made them into tab delimited lists that can be sorted in a DataGrid.
Also... and this is not needed to use the SF Symbols font or the color emojis, you could use the OXT Apple Imaging library extension: https://github.com/OpenXTalk-org/OXT_Ap ... /tree/main
This library contains a few tricks for importing/exporting image data provided by Apple (and some provided by NeXT) the 'NSNamedImages' and other symbols/system assets. It also has handlers for processing the image data with Apple's CoreImage filters.

Re: Apple symbols
Ah yes, in that repo there's a list of the glyphs that are restricted to use by Apple:

Re: Apple symbols
And are we to suppose that the rest are 'free' in some way, so can be deployed wherever and whenever?

Re: Apple symbols
I'm not going to use any of that in OpenXTalk, to be sure. I have included extremely similar glyphs from sets that have a clearly open source friendly license like LGPL, MIT, etc. such as Material Icons (6063+, dark/light mode friendly icons in that set, and it's only a few megabytes)richmond62 wrote: ↑Sat Oct 07, 2023 7:18 pm And are we to suppose that the rest are 'free' in some way, so can be deployed wherever and whenever?
