Use the controls at the top of this page to preview save_alt at any size and color, then copy the code. Here is what each setting does in your own Angular app.
Change the Save Alt icon size
<mat-icon> is fixed at 24 × 24 px, so set width and height along with font-size or the Save Alt glyph will overflow its box.
<mat-icon fontSet="material-icons" class="save-alt-icon">save_alt</mat-icon>
.save-alt-icon {
font-size: 40px;
width: 40px;
height: 40px;
}Change the Save Alt icon color
The icon is a font glyph, so it takes the CSS text color. Set color on the <mat-icon> or on a parent, or use a theme variable to follow light and dark mode.
.save-alt-icon {
color: #1a73e8;
/* or follow your Material 3 theme */
color: var(--mat-sys-primary);
}Save Alt icon FAQ
- How do I change the color of the Save Alt icon in Angular Material?
- Give the <mat-icon> a class and set the CSS color property, for example .save-alt-icon { color: #1a73e8; }. The save_alt icon is a font glyph, so any text color works, including theme variables such as var(--mat-sys-primary).
- How do I make the Save Alt icon bigger?
- Set font-size, width and height together, for example font-size: 40px; width: 40px; height: 40px;. <mat-icon> has a fixed 24px box, so changing font-size alone makes the icon overflow.
