Ruler Pen Icon
ruler-pen · Design Tools · 6 styles
Ruler Pen sits in the Design Tools shelf of the Solar Icons library. It is one of 29 glyphs in that category and one of 1,246 icons in the library overall, each drawn on the same 24x24 grid so Ruler Pen lines up optically with everything around it. The icon is addressed in templates by the string "ruler-pen", and every style variant resolves from that single name.
In practice it stands for editing and drawing. That places Ruler Pen in the Design Tools family, which covers alignment, layers, colour picking and canvas manipulation and turns up in editor toolbars, property panels, layer trees and inspector rails. Teams building design tools, page builders and no-code editors reach for this set first. Use Ruler Pen 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.
Ruler Pen in 6 styles
Ruler Pen is available 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.

Every export is an isolated constant, so the bundler drops whatever you never mention. Import RulerPenBold from the "@rchernando/solar-icons/design-tools" 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 ruler-pen live in that same entry point, so switching style is a one-line change.

Ruler Pen icon FAQ
- How do I use the ruler-pen icon in Angular?
- Import RulerPenBold from "@rchernando/solar-icons/design-tools", register it with provideSolarIcons(RulerPenBold) and render <solar-icon name="ruler-pen" iconStyle="bold" />. No HTTP request is made — the SVG is inlined at build time.
- Which styles does Ruler Pen 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 ruler-pen?
- Yes. The size input accepts any CSS length and the SVG uses currentColor, so Ruler Pen inherits the text colour of its container — a Tailwind class such as text-violet-400 is enough.
