    <para>A <link

object contains information about an icon in a <link
linkend="class-gtkicontheme"><classname>gtk.IconTheme</classname></link>. A
<link linkend="class-gtkiconinfo"><classname>gtk.IconInfo</classname></link>
object is created using the <link
linkend="method-gtkicontheme--lookup-icon"><methodname>gtk.IconTheme.lookup_icon</methodname>()</link>
method.</para>

    <para>A <link
linkend="class-gdkpixbuf"><classname>gtk.gdk.Pixbuf</classname></link> can
be rendered with the icon using the <link
linkend="method-gtkiconinfo--load-icon"><methodname>load_icon</methodname>()</link>
method. If you just want to load the pixbuf of an icon you can use the <link
linkend="method-gtkicontheme--load-icon"><methodname>gtk.IconTheme.load_icon</methodname>()</link>
method that combines the <link
linkend="method-gtkicontheme--lookup-icon"><methodname>gtk.IconTheme.lookup_icon</methodname>()</link>
method and the <link

      <para>The <methodname>get_base_size</methodname>() method returns the
base size for the icon. The base size is a size for the icon that was
specified by the icon theme creator. This may be different than the actual
size of image; an example of this is small emblem icons that can be attached
to a larger icon. These icons will be given the same base size as the larger
icons to which they are attached.</para>

      <para>The <methodname>load_icon</methodname>() method renders the icon
previously looked up in an icon theme using the <link

method. The icon size will be based on the size passed to the <link
linkend="method-gtkicontheme--lookup-icon"><methodname>gtk.IconTheme.lookup_icon()</methodname></link>
method. Note that the resulting <link
linkend="class-gdkpixbuf"><classname>gtk.gdk.Pixbuf</classname></link> may
not be exactly this size. An icon theme may have icons that differ slightly
from their nominal sizes, and in addition <literal>GTK</literal>+ will avoid
scaling icons that it considers sufficiently close to the requested size to
maintain sharpness.</para>

rendering of the icon.</para>

methods will be returned in their original form as specified in the icon
theme, instead of scaled appropriately for the pixbuf returned by the <link
linkend="method-gtkiconinfo--load-icon"><methodname>load_icon()</methodname></link>
method.</para>

      <para>Raw coordinates are somewhat strange; they are specified to be
with respect to the unscaled pixmap for <literal>PNG</literal> and
<literal>XPM</literal> icons, but for <literal>SVG</literal> icons, they are
in a 1000x1000 coordinate space that is scaled to the final size of the
icon.  You can determine if the icon is an <literal>SVG</literal> icon by
using the <link
linkend="method-gtkiconinfo--get-filename"><methodname>get_filename()</methodname></link>
method, and seeing if it is not <literal>None</literal> and ends in '.svg'.</para>

      <para>This method is provided primarily to allow compatibility
wrappers for older API's, and is not expected to be useful for
applications.</para>
