Should you search the sun icon by tag or by name?

Search the sun icon by name when you can say the object, and by tag when you only know the job it does. A name hits one family of drawings. A tag such as ui or arrow opens a wider grid you then judge at 100 px. The start page is for a first visit; search is for this exact mark.

Type the name of the sun icon first. Open a tag only if that name returns a crowded or empty grid. Then keep the tile that stays clear at 100 px and whose badge matches the deck. The start page does not replace this step on a return visit.

Type the name of the sun icon first. Open a tag only if that name returns a crowded or empty grid. Then keep the tile that stays clear at 100 px and whose badge matches the deck. The start page does not replace this step on a return visit.

Name first

The everyday word for the sun icon is the shortest path. Search matches the localized name and the tags on the tile, so a direct word usually lands near 100 px previews of the right object.

Tag when the name fails

If the name of the sun icon returns nothing, switch to the job: navigation, file, alert, or media. You will see more tiles. Discard any that fall apart at 100 px before you read licences.

Start page is not search

The start page orients a first visit. It will not rank a sun icon for your deck. After that visit, type the name. A 100 px decision belongs on the search page, not on the welcome strip.

Stop on a clear tile — sun-icon

Whether you arrived by name or by tag, stop when one sun icon is readable at 100 px and the badge fits. A second synonym rarely beats that tile.

This page chooses a query for the sun icon. A 100 px tile is a preview, not a promise that every synonym is tagged.

Questions

Do tags replace the name of the sun icon?
No. A tag widens the grid. The name of the sun icon is still the faster query when you know it. Use 100 px only as the readability check after either path.
What if several packs show the same sun icon?
Compare badges, then the stroke at 100 px. Prefer the pack you already use elsewhere on the deck so the sun icon matches its neighbors.
Is the popular row a substitute for naming the sun icon?
Only if the sun icon happens to sit there. For a specific mark at 100 px, the name in search is still the reliable path.
