Add extension thumbnails

Mike Kowalski requested to merge add-effect-icons into master

What does the merge request do?

Adds thumbnails for all extension effects.

Summary for release notes

Inkscape can present extension effects in a gallery and render their thumbnails.

To save a thumbnail illustrating extension one can create a 70x60 px SVG image and prepare it in one of three possible ways, whichever is the most convenient:

  1. Save SVG along INX file and add <icon> element inside INX <effect> with a name of the SVG file (it can include relative path, if needed).

  2. Save SVG along INX file using the same name as INX file, but with the "svg" extension instead. Ex: "effect.inx" and "effect.svg".

  3. Save SVG inside "icons" folder in extension's directory under the name matching extension's ID with appended ".svg".

Checklist

  • Add unit tests (if applicable)
