Change within component and in OUI Docs site:

• OuiHeader
• OuiLoadingDashboards

OpenSearch logo? I think we'll need screenshots here to make sure we account for it everywhere it matters.

@joshuarrrr if we can control it through utilizing the logoOpenSearch if possible, I think that would resolve many issues. I am not sure if this is going to require a campaign across the feature plug-ins or not, though, since in some instances they may be using additional OpenSearch logo assets.

Oh, so this issue is just for OUI doc site? Yeah, shouldn't be a problem.

[KrooshalUX]

No, sorry I see how the wording might be confusing. The change is to make logoOpenSearch as an icon change depending on light or dark mode. That way when anyone in OSD uses logoOpenSearch , the change is automatic.

Ideally we would campaign all non OUI driven uses of logoOpenSearch to be OUI driven. (And also adding the full logo as well). This is how EUI served up logos in the past for Kbn.

The changes also need to update in the doc site as well (ex: the logo in the nav bar)

@KrooshalUX - @AMoo-Miki and I discussed this morning, and what we propose is actually providing 3 logoOpenSearch variants - one that's monochrome and is compatible with the color prop that all other icons can use, and then separate logoOpenSearchLight and logoOpenSearchDark variants that use the appropriate fill colors. The reason is that usage doesn't actually depend on theme/mode, but on the background color the icon is set against, such as the OUI docs site where the header always uses the dark background, regardless of theme/mode.

[KrooshalUX]

That makes sense to me - is there much risk to the logo being misused/ overrides giving the logo color incorrectly if we are providing it as monocrhome and compatible with the color prop?

[AMoo-Miki]

Coloring the monochrome ones would only be able to set the entire logo into a specific color; I am having a hard time making up an abusive single color; misuse per the usage guidance for contrasting background would be possible but I don't believe OUI should concern itself with that much detail.
