Instance methods

webkit_web_extension_get_action_icon

Returns the extension’s default action icon image for the specified size. This icon serves as a default and should be used to represent the extension in contexts like action sheets or toolbars prior to the extension being loaded into an extension context. Once the extension is loaded, use the actionForTab: API to get the tab-specific icon. The returned image will be the best match for the specified size that is available in the extension’s action icon set. If no matching icon is available, the method will fall back to the extension’s icon.
