How do I get and show system icon?

I installed SDK connect IQ 7.3.1 to design my watch face for Instinct 2X solar.

I can found some system icon in the document. Ex: system_icon_light__about, system_icon_light__cancel...

(PersonalityLibrary.html in SDK folder)

But I installed different watch face from Connect IQ store, many system icon is the same. ex: battery, altitude, barometer, weather.

I knew how to show system_icon_light__about in my .mc file.

but I could not find the name for battery, altitude, barometer, weather.

If I would like to show the icon of battery, altitude, barometer, weather in my .mc file, how do I get the system_icon...name? or Is there the standard .png file to let me download?

I know that's a 7 year old thread, but nothing has really changed.

So there is no specific name for system icon from ttf file.

But ttf has no altitude, barometer, weather.
On the other hand, If I would like to show battery icon, do I need to prepare 100 icons to show 1~100%?

There's a ttf file in the thread I linked, and with that and bmfont. you create a custom font with the icons you want, in the size you need.

If you look through the icons in the ttf, you might not find exactly what you want, but ones that will work.
