  • 1.  Key icon definitions?

    Posted Mar 06, 2014 11:07 AM

    I've searched this forum and in-app help, but can find no comprehensive definition of the key icons.  Yes, there are references to double key and gold key, but nothing that brings them all together.

    I have single keys, double keys (blue and gold), grayed out single keys, skeleton keys, envelopes, pen-with-[globe?].  Images below.

    The closest I have found in help are subkey descriptions in "Working with Subkeys" but those shown are in the properties box under Usage and do not match the icons in the key list.

    Does anyone have a list of icons and descriptions?

    The pen + globe = Signature

    double keys = key pairs

    single keys = public keys

    pen with clock = expired signature

    TBH I'm not sure what the difference between the gold and blue keypairs are!

    Anything with a clock on means its expired i think.

    Hi all,

    If I recall correctly, the gold keypair indicated a Master Key.

    Hi,

    There is one symbol for DH/DSS keys not sure if that's the gold keypair you mention (for me it looks red).
    That key with an old-style is RSA legacy.
