I love the Font APEX icons. Hundreds of icons free to use in any APEX application. Since it is also present on GitHub (https://oracle.github.io/font-apex/index.html) you can even use them in a non-apex application.
I use Google authentication a lot, and always used the fa-google icon on the button that allows such authentication. Without even thinking about it. This morning suddenly I thought: What other icons do I have?
I therefore went to the link on github and had a look. To my surprise I couldnt find any of them. They were however properly displayed in my app. So where are they defined and what other icons are available?
Looking at the HTML and CSS of my displayed google icon I found that these extras do heavily rely on the font-apex.min.css however they are not defined there. Their definition is in Core.min.css, part of the universal theme.
Here is a list of icons that we can find there:
All css classes are prefixed with fa-. Just like youre used to with other font-apex icons.
I hope the APEX team reads this 🙂 I do have some ideas for other brands to be included:
-
apple (fa-apple)
-
android (fa-android)
-
bluesky (fa-bluesky)
-
hashnode (fa-hashnode)
-
windows (fa-mswindows)
-
mac-os (fa-macos)
Next to all these branded icons we now also have flag-icons:
A full list of flag-icons can be retrieved with following SQL:
select * from APEX_DG_BUILTIN_FONTAPEX where ICON_CATEGORY = 'FLAG' order by icon_name
