Select

This icon represents selection functionality and choice mechanisms in digital applications, often featuring cursor arrows, checkmarks, or highlighting symbols. As the fundamental indicator of selection modes, this icon has become the standard representation for item selection, choice interfaces, and picking tools across modern software platforms.

In design applications like Figma and Adobe Illustrator, this icon activates selection tools for choosing and manipulating objects. Form interfaces across web applications use it for dropdown selection fields, while file management systems deploy it for entering multi-select modes and choosing multiple items for batch operations.

From an interaction design perspective, the select icon communicates more than just choice capability - it represents the transition into selection mode, the ability to designate specific items from collections, and user control over which elements receive focus or action. The selection symbolism helps users understand they're entering a state where clicking items adds them to a selection set.

Select is one of 50 icons in Gala Icons, made by Jake Wells and released under GPL. It is drawn on a 256 × 256 grid with a 16 stroke.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds SelectIcon to components/icons/gala-select.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 SelectIcon 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 Select icon, or any of 50 Gala 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 256 × 256 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation, and its stroke.

Select is a line icon drawn with a stroke width of 16. Change it in Customize before you copy, or pass strokeWidth to the installed component when all of its strokes share one width.

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="Select", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. SelectIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <SelectIcon 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.

GPL is copyleft: what you ship with the icons may have to use the same license. Check it fits your project first. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

Keep the GPL notice with the icons, and credit Jake Wells as it asks. GPL is copyleft, so what you ship with them may have to use the same license.

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

8 other libraries draw an icon called Select. The Other libraries section on this page shows each one, so you can compare them and open the one that fits your style.

Its tags are selection, picker, choice and selector. Each tag page lists the icons that carry it from every library, which is the quickest way to find a match for Select in another set.
