Zoom Out

The zoom-out icon represents a zooming or minification functionality, symbolizing the ability to reduce or decrease digital content. The visual design often features a stylized representation of a magnifying glass or a zooming lens, conveying a sense of decrease or reduction. This icon originates from image editing and digital zooming tools.

In digital platforms, the zoom-out icon is commonly used in image editing software, digital maps, and document viewers. For example, Adobe Photoshop and Google Maps use zoom-out icons to represent minification functionality.

From a UX perspective, the zoom-out icon effectively communicates the concept of reducing or decreasing digital content, helping users understand and interact with digital interfaces. The icon's recognizable design makes it easy to understand and use across different interfaces.

Zoom Out is one of 538 icons in Codicons, made by Microsoft Corporation and released under CC BY 4.0. It is drawn on a 16 × 16 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 ZoomOutIcon to components/icons/codicon-zoom-out.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 ZoomOutIcon 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 Zoom Out icon, or any of 538 Codicons 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 16 × 16 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation.

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="Zoom Out", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. ZoomOutIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <ZoomOutIcon 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, with credit: CC BY 4.0 asks you to credit the author (Microsoft Corporation) where you use the icons. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

Yes. CC BY 4.0 asks you to credit the author where you use the icons, for example "Icons by Microsoft Corporation, CC BY 4.0" on an about or credits page.

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