Sizing
System icons are usually paired with text and will inherit that text’s size. On the rare occasion that icons are standalone, use text sizes to scale the icon. Please reach out to the Anatomy team if you have standalone icons.
Color
System icons are usually paired with text and will inherit that text’s color. On the rare occasion that icons are standalone, use an appropriate text color (usually neutral-00, action-primary-40, or neutral-100). Please reach out to the Anatomy team if you have standalone icons.
Note: the Stoplight component is the exception to the rule of matching the icon color with the icon text. This is because the stoplight icon colors are not accessible as text colors.
