Description

Certain application icons on Nokia N91 and Nokia 5500 Sport phones are clipped from the left and right sides. This is visible on Nokia N91 phones with firmware version 3.x in the application menu when the Grid view is used.
When the List view is used in the application menu, the icons are displayed correctly. The application icon is displayed correctly also in the Active standby application list.

Solution

Define an invisible box in the SVG file in addition to the visible icon parts. The box has to be somewhat larger than the visible icon itself; just having an invisible box with the same dimensions as the visible icon does not solve this issue.
