Ellipsis Outline

The ellipsis-outline icon represents a series of three horizontal dots often used to signify a menu or additional options. This visual design typically originates from a need to provide users with a clear indication that there are more choices or actions available. The simplicity of three dots allows for universal understanding across different platforms and cultures.

In user interfaces like mobile apps or web applications, you'll see this icon in toolbars, headers, or as part of a context menu. For example, on social media platforms, clicking on the ellipsis icon might reveal options to report a post, share it, or hide it from the user's feed. This icon is also prevalent in file managers or document viewers where users can access additional file actions.

From a UX perspective, the ellipsis-outline icon communicates the availability of supplementary actions without cluttering the interface. It helps users quickly identify where to find more information or options related to the current context, enhancing the overall usability of the application.

Ellipsis Outline is one of 250 icons in Bitcoin Icons, made by Bitcoin Design Community and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 24 × 24 grid.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds EllipsisOutlineIcon to components/icons/bitcoin-icons-ellipsis-outline.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed EllipsisOutlineIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Ellipsis Outline icon, or any of 250 Bitcoin Icons icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 24 × 24 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation, and its stroke.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Ellipsis Outline", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. EllipsisOutlineIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <EllipsisOutlineIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.

Yes. MIT allows commercial use; keep the license notice when you ship the icons' source files. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

No visible credit is required: MIT only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Bitcoin Icons, Bitcoin Design Community and the license.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
