Note: Remarks apply to 4K monitor.

For example, GripRotation.png:
If all versions of the associated former PNG in the ui folder for MoI5beta, are renamed *.BAK the control does not show up in the Edit Frame.
(Absent copies in either of the two theme folders.)

For MoI5beta:
A revised PNG for an element of the Edit Frame can be placed in AppData > "MyCurrentThemeFolder".
Or else in MoI5beta folder > ui > Theme folder for original MoI themes Default, Dark, and also the green one.

If a new instance of MoI5beta is then opened, under a different Theme, with a different version of GripRotation,
the two versions of GripRotation.png may be visually compared, side by side.

For example, if original GripFrame.png is placed in MoI5beta > ui > Dark,
it overrides the modified PNG version in MoI5beta > ui. (Stated as fact, unless I am mistaken.)
(Note, my custom MoI5beta themes are in the AppData themes folder.)

Legibility of the GripFrame's is obviously better. (4K monitor)
Legibility of the GripRotation's is better, but just a little, as the size increase for the non-transparent pixels was slight.

I tried a 128 X 128 pixel PNG, with enlarged GripRotation, but it did not seem to be better than modified 64 X 64 pixel version. ???
I'm not sure how the mapping works. ??? Larger transparent pixel map. A larger invisible object looks the same as a smaller invisible object :-) ???
