About the No Writing Sign color outline icon
A sharpened pencil tilts to the right inside a bold circle, and a diagonal bar runs from upper left to lower right straight across it, the standard prohibition mark. The pairing reads unmistakably as writing not permitted, which suits exam hall notices, library and museum signage, read-only states in document editors, locked form fields and rule slides in test instructions.
The circle, slash and pencil share one stroke weight and the slash crosses the pencil near its midpoint, keeping both shapes readable. It pairs with no photography, no phones and read-only lock icons from the same set. In interfaces, reserve it for a genuinely disabled action rather than a warning.
This is the colour outline version of the no writing sign icon: the same line drawing in an accent colour, useful for highlighting a state, a category or a brand tone without adding visual weight.
