Mixing
Visual Studio uses a lightning icon to reprsent events, is this commonly associated with events?
I'm looking for an icon to represent events and struggling a bit.
There is the 'calendar event' icon that is quite universal but my application is displaying events that occur in a vehicle and is more akin to a programming event.
Visual Studio uses the lightning icon for events, does anyone know if this is a universal icon for events?

Visual Studio is about the only application that uses the lightning strike icon for events.
It is not univerally recognised as representing an event.
