Text Cross Icon
text-cross · Text Formatting · 6 styles
Solar Icons draws Text Cross as part of its Text Formatting collection. It is one of 33 glyphs in that category and one of 1,246 icons in the library overall, each drawn on the same 24x24 grid so Text Cross lines up optically with everything around it. The icon is addressed in templates by the string "text-cross", and every style variant resolves from that single name.
What the outline actually encodes is text content and dismissing or closing. That places Text Cross in the Text Formatting family, which covers typography controls and rich-text formatting and turns up in WYSIWYG toolbars, markdown editors, comment boxes and CMS fields. Teams building editors and content tooling reach for this set first. Use Text Cross 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.
Text Cross in 6 styles
Text Cross is exported 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 TextCrossBold from the "@rchernando/solar-icons/text-formatting" 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 text-cross live in that same entry point, so switching style is a one-line change.

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