Shevek created NETBEANS-2608:
--------------------------------
Summary: Graphics: Can't tell when a project has an error
Key: NETBEANS-2608
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-2608
Project: NetBeans
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 11.0
Reporter: Shevek
Attachments: nb-gradle-icons.png
I care about only one thing in the project summary: Does a project have an
error.
Look at the attached image, and tell me at a glance which subprojects have
errors?
I can't see because there's too much other noise in confusing colours.
Please can you remove all unnecessary noise from the project icon EXCEPT red
for error, and something NOT-in-the-red-spectrum for OK.
The kind of dark orange coffee cup makes the icon totally useless.
Imagine 200 of these icons on a 4K screen.
I don't care if it's a gradle project or a maven project, whether anyone thinks
it contains XML or EJBs, or is upside down or written in greek. I KNOW that
stuff anyway, it's not a rapidly changing property of a project. What I want
the IDE to tell me is "Does this contain an error". There's no other useful
information there.
Please note, just for the record: None of these subprojects have errors, it's a
NetBeans synchronization or source-rescanning bug that it thinks they do. When
I ask it to compile, it's fine. But that's not what this ticket is about.
