    When you replace the base image, Theme Builder creates the other icon sizes by resizing your new base image automatically. This means that you only need to maintain one source file, and Theme Builder keeps every size in sync for you. If the automatically generated sizes lose sharpness or important details, you can replace any size independently.

    You can override an entire icon set via a single base image or provide size‑specific assets for precise control.

    Use the base image override when:
    • You want to move quickly with a single source of truth.
    • Minor changes from scaling are acceptable.
    Use per‑size overrides when:
    • You need uniform stroke weights across sizes.
    • Fine details get lost at 12×12 or 16×16, and you want simplified small-size art.
    • Your design team maintains a bespoke icon set according to size.
    중요사항:
    Custom images apply to Workspaces and aren’t supported in the Core UI.
