Programmer's letter to designers (in the process of preparing a new Winx project ...)
Yesterday, a letter from a programmer ( mihinn ) fell on the mail — about the life cycle of graphics after it was cut and about its “digestibility” for a programmer — it seemed interesting to me, maybe someone would also draw some conclusions from it and find the same I have a problem with myself (and it would be great if someone shared their experiences on how it is organized with you).
The answer from the designers is here .
"Hello,
I would like to touch on the theme of interaction between designers and the rest of the world. You do your job perfectly, there are no complaints about quality, but there is one small wish. I beg you, decide on the naming format / nomenclature of graphics.
')
Understand, on drawing and cutting graphics, her life cycle does not end, make it comfortable to use! I understand that your work ends here, but please respect others.
And not to be unfounded, we smoothly go to the examples section (graphics from the WinX project - which lies in the dropbox folder under the code name Fix)
Buttons come in three forms:
button_panel
btn_close
feedback_but
In the “Search Modifier” folder, search can be found on either side of the middle of the file name.
search_logo
top_panel_search
The same applies to the adjective modifiers:
arrow_left
video_box
Pop pixies also vary:
pop_pixie_logo
pp_season
I DON'T FUNNY! In the resource folder of the still unfinished Winx 150 android project !!! units of graphics. I am confused in this lush variety of formats. Enter my position and get me right!
What I would like to see:
- one object is called the same word everywhere
- the adjective + noun pair are everywhere in the same order
- hierarchical prefix (for example, about _ *** for all graphics belonging to this screen) - reverse hierarchical writing in other words
- modifiers in postfix (like _pressed, you should shove at the end, for example, and _pp)
those. search_bottombar_arrow_left_pressed_pp is a long but illustrative example, read from right to left - a poppee-pressed left arrow from the lower bar that is on the search screen
If my suggestions are reasonable, please note them, many developers will give you more human thanks!
PS: Forgive me, if something is wrong, I never wanted to offend anyone, just throw out your creative not in the title, but in the content of the graphics.
Thanks for your time!
