Frequently asked questions
What the Hourglass Start icon means and where it's used, then how to install, style, label and license it.
The hourglass-start icon represents the beginning of a time period or process. It symbolizes the start of a task or project. This icon is often used to indicate the initiation of a sequence or cycle.
In software and digital platforms, the hourglass-start icon is commonly used in applications that require users to wait for a process to begin, such as loading animations or progress bars. For example, it may appear in online learning platforms like Udemy to indicate the start of a course.
From a UX perspective, the hourglass-start icon communicates a sense of initiation and beginning, helping users understand that a process has started and they need to wait for it to complete. It provides visual feedback that a task has begun.
Hourglass Start is one of 1,426 icons in Siemens Industrial Experience Icons, made by Siemens AG and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 512 × 512 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 HourglassStartIcon to components/icons/ix-hourglass-start.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 HourglassStartIcon 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 Hourglass Start icon, or any of 1,426 Siemens Industrial Experience 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 512 × 512 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="Hourglass Start", so screen readers say what it does.
Yes. HourglassStartIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <HourglassStartIcon 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 Siemens Industrial Experience Icons, Siemens AG and the license.
Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
