Android: Standards for prefixing files in the RES directory apart from ic_?

Question

anyone know if there a list of standard prefixes that we need to use (or advisable to use) in the RES directory. i.e. Android recommends ic_ for icons, which is great and i am following that. But what about Logos, button images, navigation images etc? I would really be interested to find out if other exist and what everyone else is using Thanks in advance

Accepted Answer

Use common naming conventions for icon assets

Try to name files so that related assets will group together inside a directory when they are sorted alphabetically. In particular, it helps to use a common prefix for each icon type. For example:

```
Asset Type                   Prefix            Example
Icons                         ic_                ic_star.png
Launcher icons                ic_launcher        ic_launcher_calendar.png
Menu  and Action Bar icons    ic_menu            ic_menu_archive.png
Status bar icons              ic_stat_notify     ic_stat_notify_msg.png
Tab icons                     ic_tab             ic_tab_recent.png
Dialog icons                  ic_dialog          ic_dialog_info.png
```
