Cog Shuffle and randomize playlist icons look identical.

trafficstars

Describe Both icons look identical for "shuffle mode" and "randomize playlist" toolbar buttons.

To Reproduce (delete if not applicable) Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Open Cog
Add both "shuffle mode" and "randomize playlist" buttons to the toolbar
Experience some confusion

Expected behavior Would it be better to use a dice icon for playlist randomization maybe?

Hm, I really have no ideas, what symbol can replace current one. IMHO, dice is not the one we want.

Looks good, I'll put incorporation on my todo list for a future build.

We could use dice for Randomize action

I thought but did not want to draw. I have an association (dice) with the casino.

@nevack Thanks, I'll take a look. I can draw it myself, without any copyrights, whether they are there or not.

I like this last one:

But the lines on the playlist object need to be thicker for non-Retina displays, otherwise it looks like a blur. It looks perfect on my 4K monitor, though.

Also, please, for future reference. Please only use Black shapes in these templates. No white shapes, that doesn't work for templates.

All objects with holes in them must be assembled as objects with actual cutouts in them. Otherwise, I have to render the vector to a high res PNG and trace it to a vector all over again. It'll still look the same, but it needs to be purely black shapes, no layered white shapes, because those don't work for template vectors.
