Hi Evalica, Thanks for answer.
I added some questions inline. ^^ This is more questions to make thinking that questions that need an answer.

Icons are faster to read that text yet can't be here without the text or something that learn user about what they mean. This is why text is sometime doubled with icones, in general. As I told it before, I'm wondering about adding the information : - Adding text + icones ? - adding nothing when there is an user written message only adding text. It is as always a dilema : rich Vs simple. I'm generaly a pro-simple since each people building something has an incontrolable envy of making things too rich. So softwares are generally to rich. This makes them, in fact, complicated because of user over-information. Too many "but what is this ?" makes the user feeling he is not understanding the software. Yet this is just generalities so there not an unique answer here. Evrything is a matter of gobal ergonomics strategy. > > > > > Here is a proposal that may be simpler.
