Favicons placed in shelf are larger than Chrome app icons |
|||
Issue descriptionGoogle Chrome 64.0.3282.190 (Official Build) (64-bit) Platform 10176.76.0 (Official Build) stable-channel caroline I used to use an official Google Calendar shortcut Chrome app, but it looks like it got removed from the Web Store, so after setting up a new Chromebook, I used "More tools > Add to shelf..." to create a shortcut to https://calendar.google.com/calendar/r. However, the icon that appears in the shelf is both blurry and larger than all of its Chrome app neighbors. I suspect that the blurriness is just a result of Calendar not providing a higher-resolution favicon, but it seems like we should be able to do a better job of scaling the icon so its size matches other icons. Here are the Web Store icon guidelines from https://developer.chrome.com/webstore/images#icons: "You must provide a 128x128-pixel app icon image in the ZIP file of your app. Some requirements for the image: The actual icon size should be 96x96 (for square icons); an additional 16 pixels per side should be transparent padding, adding up to 128x128 total image size. ..." There are more details at https://developer.chrome.com/webstore/images#iconsize. I suspect that most favicons are going to fill the entire (small) space available to them instead of occupying just 75% of the full dimensions. Should we scale favicons down accordingly when they're placed in the shelf?

Perhaps we should size them down. I'll let Sebastien figure out the specs for this. In the long run, we expect apps like Calendar will provide proper large-scale icons in their metadata so Add to Shelf will use the proper assets, rather than the 16x16 or 32x32 favicon. (But we should still be prepared to deal with apps that only have a favicon.)

This is related to bug 817544. We need an icon normalization system. I'll create a spec for it.
