Hi there,

 

Thanks for reaching out. That's an expected behavior when you export images with 96 DPI. For exact dimensions, please use 72 DPI.

Save your images 32x32px at 72 ppi.

Open them in Photoshop an use: Image > Image Size to change the Resolution to 96 pixels/inch.

Make sure Resample is unchecked

Thank you for the answer but the problem is the images definition.

On the left you can see an icon good and on the right my exportation.

Why can't I get an image with clean lines?
