BSicon road transitions [edit]

Hello again. Check Category_talk:Icons_for_motorway_descriptions/generic#Straights, under "Transitions" and you can guess I don’t think the two icons you made, (RP2a4) & (RP4e2), are the way to go. Design differences don’t bother me much, but I cannot figure out the naming scheme you suggest from those two: What would (RP2e4), f.i., look like, if not identical to (RP4a2)? (Anyway, great work with the color gradient at (WWECHSEL), which I totally stole for (RD1yRP1) et c.!) -- Tuválkin ✉ 01:32, 22 April 2013 (UTC)

The naming was a carry-over from the doublings

(vRP2a4) et. al.), which came from

(vSTRa). I do see your point, though, but what does the "y" stand for in your namings? And as an aside, (IMHO) there's something about the dashing that makes

(RP2yRP4) look not nearly as smooth (sleek?) as (RP2a4) even though the geometry of the road surface in nearly identical—only 2 pixels difference at 20px. How do you feel about deleting the latter and renaming the former? Useddenim (talk) 11:02, 22 April 2013 (UTC)

No problem with the exact geometry; I had these already done, offline, a while back, before I saw yours. The "Y" in the name suggests width change, just a placeholder for "becomes" oslt. The important matter is that a begin/end distinction is unnecessary, as it is already given by the order of the road type identifiers — not unlike

(RP2xRP4) v.s

(RP4xRP2). (Yes, this is different from the usual BSicon naming approach: I wanted to use these icons also as a laboratory for alternative naming conventions; besides, some of the needs of this set are specific and unlike the usual line icons’.) -- Tuválkin ✉ 18:57, 22 April 2013 (UTC)
