Forbidden Icon
forbidden · Essentional Ui · 6 styles
Solar Icons catalogues Forbidden under Essentional Ui. It is one of 139 glyphs in that category and one of 1,246 icons in the library overall, each drawn on the same 24x24 grid so Forbidden lines up optically with everything around it. The icon is addressed in templates by the string "forbidden", and every style variant resolves from that single name.
Semantically the glyph carries the idea of the primitives every interface needs — add, close, check, menu, info, danger. That places Forbidden in the Essentional Ui family, which covers the primitives every interface needs — add, close, check, menu, info, danger and turns up in buttons, dialogs, toasts, form validation and empty states. Teams building literally every application, which is why it is the largest set here reach for this set first. Use Forbidden where the label alone would be ambiguous — an icon-only button, a dense table row, a mobile tab bar — and keep an accessible name on the control, because the SVG itself is decorative.
Forbidden in 6 styles
Forbidden comes rendered in 6 style variants: Bold, Bold Duotone, Linear, Outline, Broken and Line Duotone. Bold gives you solid filled shapes that hold their weight at 16px and read clearly against coloured backgrounds. Bold Duotone gives you a filled body with a second, lower-opacity layer that adds depth without a second colour token. Linear gives you even 1.5px strokes, the neutral default for dense interfaces and toolbars. A common pairing is Bold for the selected state and Line Duotone for the rest, so the active item reads without a colour change.

Because each export is a separate binding, unused variants are dropped by the bundler. Import ForbiddenBold from the "@rchernando/solar-icons/essentional-ui" entry point, hand it to provideSolarIcons in your application config or in a route-level providers array, and render it with the solar-icon component. All 6 exports for forbidden live in that same entry point, so switching style is a one-line change.

Forbidden icon FAQ
- How do I use the forbidden icon in Angular?
- Import ForbiddenBold from "@rchernando/solar-icons/essentional-ui", register it with provideSolarIcons(ForbiddenBold) and render <solar-icon name="forbidden" iconStyle="bold" />. No HTTP request is made — the SVG is inlined at build time.
- Which styles does Forbidden support?
- 6 of them: Bold, Bold Duotone, Linear, Outline, Broken and Line Duotone. Each is a separate export, so you only ship the ones you import.
- Can I change the size and colour of forbidden?
- Yes. The size input accepts any CSS length and the SVG uses currentColor, so Forbidden inherits the text colour of its container — a Tailwind class such as text-violet-400 is enough.
