How to use the new chart icons with the Hue SDK or in standalone

Published on 11 June 2014 in Development - 1 minute read - Last modified on 19 April 2021

Hue 3.6+ ships with three font icon sets: Font Awesome 4 (http://fontawesome.io/), the Hue Filetypes font and the Hue Chart font that includes some basic charts you might need.

The icons are available in the Hue master or in this zip file:

When you want to use the new icons in your app, you have first to import the Hue Charts css in your .mako template:

 

<link href="/static/ext/css/hue-charts.css" rel="stylesheet">

and then define you icons with the same way you would do with Font Awesome.

In our case you need to write a prefix (hfo instead of fa)

 

<i class="hcha .."></i>

and then you can specify the icon you want. To render an area chart icon for instance you should use

 

<i class="hcha hcha-area-chart"></i>

 

You can also use the modifiers from Font Awesome, so you can create a larger rotated PDF icon like this:

 

<i class="hcha hcha-area-chart fa-2x fa-rotate-90"></i>

 

Which other icons would you like to see implemented? We would also be glad to contribute them back. Please let us know or comment!
