Widget description
==================
An icon object is used to display standard icon images ("delete",
"edit", "arrows", etc.) or images coming from a custom file (PNG, JPG,
EDJE, etc.), on icon contexts.
The icon image requested can be in the Elementary theme in use, or in
the ``freedesktop.org`` theme paths. It's possible to set the order of
preference from where an image will be fetched.
This widget inherits from the :py:class:`~efl.elementary.image.Image` one, so
that all the functions acting on it also work for icon objects.
You should be using an icon, instead of an image, whenever one of the
following apply:
- you need a **thumbnail** version of an original image
- you need freedesktop.org provided icon images
- you need theme provided icon images (Edje groups)
Default images provided by Elementary's default theme are described below.
These are names that follow (more or less) the **Freedesktop** icon naming
specification. Use of these names are **preferred**, at least if you want to
give your user the ability to use other themes. All these icons can be
seen in the elementary_test application, the test is called "Icon Standard".

- ``arrow_right``
- ``chat``
- ``clock``
- ``delete``

- ``menu/close``
- ``menu/apps``
- ``menu/arrow_up``
- ``menu/arrow_down``
- ``menu/arrow_left``
- ``menu/arrow_right``
- ``menu/chat``
- ``menu/clock``
- ``menu/delete``
- ``menu/edit``
- ``menu/refresh``
- ``menu/folder``
- ``menu/file``

- ``media_player/forward``
- ``media_player/info``
- ``media_player/next``
- ``media_player/pause``
- ``media_player/play``
- ``media_player/prev``
- ``media_player/rewind``
