Usage

Use this axaml/xaml namespace for all IconPacks:

xmlns:iconPacks="https://github.com/MahApps/IconPacks.Avalonia"

Add the styles to the Applications styles

    <Application.Styles>
        <FluentTheme />

        <StyleInclude Source="avares://IconPacks.Avalonia/Icons.axaml" />
    </Application.Styles>

The resource avares://IconPacks.Avalonia/Icons.axaml should be used when using the main IconPacks.Avalonia NuGet package which contains all icons.

All other has the naming scheme avares://IconPacks.Avalonia.<PACKAGENAME>/<PACKAGENAME>.axaml

    <Application.Styles>
        <FluentTheme />

        <StyleInclude Source="avares://IconPacks.Avalonia.<PACKAGENAME>/<PACKAGENAME>.axaml" />
    </Application.Styles>

The PackIcon controls

The PackIcon controls are the main featured controls to use an icon from an IconPack in a simple way.

Each package has there own control with this name scheme: PackIcon<PACKAGENAME>

<iconPacks:PackIconBoxIcons Kind="RegularAlarm"
                            Width="24"
                            Height="24" />

or

<iconPacks:PackIconCodicons Kind="SaveAll"
                            Width="24"
                            Height="24" />

The PackIconControl

The PackIconControl is a control which can be used for any kind of available IconPacks.

This control is only available with the main IconPacks.Avalonia NuGet package.

<iconPacks:PackIconControl Kind="{x:Static iconPacks:PackIconBoxIconsKind.RegularAlarm}"
                           Width="24"
                           Height="24" />

or

<iconPacks:PackIconControl Kind="{x:Static iconPacks:PackIconCodiconsKind.SaveAll}"
                           Width="24"
                           Height="24" />

The PackIcon MarkupExtensions

A faster way to get an Icon for any ContentControl is to use the PackIcon MarkupExtension.

If you want e.g. a Button with an Icon from the Codicons then you can do this:

<Button Content="{iconPacks:Codicons SaveAll}" />

<!-- or -->

<Button Content="{iconPacks:Codicons Kind=SaveAll}" />

It's also possible to use some properties of the MarkupExtension like this:

<Button Content="{iconPacks:Codicons SaveAll, Width=32, Height=32}" />

There is also a general (generic) MarkupExtension available. With this MarkupExtension you can use any IconPack enumeration.

This MarkupExtension is only available with the main IconPacks.Avalonia NuGet package.

<Button Content="{iconPacks:PackIcon {x:Static iconPacks:PackIconCodiconsKind.SaveAll}, Width=32, Height=32}" />

The PackIcon Image MarkupExtensions

It's possible to use all icons as an Image with the PackIcon image MarkupExtension.

<Image Source="{iconPacks:BoxIconsImage Kind=RegularAtom, Brush=Brown}"
       Width="24" Height="24"
       HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="10" />

In addition, there is also a general (generic) MarkupExtension available.

This MarkupExtension is only available with the main IconPacks.Avalonia NuGet package.

<Image Source="{iconPacks:PackIconImage Kind={x:Static iconPacks:PackIconBoxIconsKind.RegularAlarm}, Brush=GreenYellow}"
       Width="24" Height="24"
       HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="10" />

The PackIcon ImageConverter

The PackIcon image converters can be used to convert a PackIcon to an Image.

<Image Source="{Binding #BoxIconsKindCombobox.SelectedItem, Mode=OneWay, Converter={iconPacks:PackIconBoxIconsKindToImageConverter Brush=Goldenrod}}"
       Width="24" Height="24"
       HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="10" />

In addition, there is also a general (generic) PackIconKindToImageConverter available.

This PackIconKindToImageConverter is only available with the main IconPacks.Avalonia NuGet package.

<Image Source="{Binding #BoxIconsKindCombobox.SelectedItem, Mode=OneWay, Converter={iconPacks:PackIconKindToImageConverter Brush=Goldenrod}}"
       Width="24" Height="24"
       HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="10" />
