Magnifier

The magnifier icon represents a tool for searching, zooming, or magnifying content, often used in digital systems to facilitate exploration and investigation. It originates from the concept of optical magnifying glasses. The magnifier icon is significant in user interfaces as it helps users understand the possibility of searching or zooming into content.

In software and platforms, the magnifier icon appears in applications like search engines, image and video viewers, and document editors, where users need to search, zoom, or inspect content. It is also used in data analysis and scientific visualization tools.

From a UX perspective, the magnifier icon communicates exploration and investigation, helping users understand the possibilities of searching and zooming into content. It facilitates discovery and analysis.

Magnifier is one of 962 icons in Lineicons, made by Lineicons and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 64 × 64 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 MagnifierIcon to components/icons/lineicons-magnifier.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 MagnifierIcon 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 Magnifier icon, or any of 962 Lineicons 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 64 × 64 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="Magnifier", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. MagnifierIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <MagnifierIcon 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 Lineicons, Lineicons and the license.

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