Ok. Some like circles, most seem not to. Some like branch rail colors, some do not and there are issues with low-contrast background colors.
Here is my latest proposal: I've made them each a setting. @Andy Bradford: My proposal is partially CSS configurable. Skins may set... - default branch node/box color (was there before) - default rail color (was there before) - node/box border color (new) - leaf indicator (dot in box) color (new). If the user selects to use branch rail colors then the default rail color is only used for the default branch. By default squares will be displayed. The user may enable circles. By default branch rail arrowheads are displayed. The user may disable arrowheads. By default branch rails are colored by the skin which is by default black. So the initial impact of this proposal on an new/existing system is 0 but the user now has some additional display preferences which may make him/her happy. -J On Thu, Mar 19, 2015 at 6:18 PM, Scott Robison <sc...@casaderobison.com> wrote: > On Thu, Mar 19, 2015 at 4:10 PM, Andy Bradford < > amb-sendok-1429395023.fedjmknnbjlmkfmlh...@bradfords.org> wrote: > >> Thus said Scott Robison on Thu, 19 Mar 2015 14:26:47 -0600: >> >> > The additional problem with color vision deficiency is that even if we >> > found a set of colors that I could always differentiate and always >> > rely on, who knows if other color deficient people would see it the >> > same way I do. >> >> Hopefully these types of things all end up as CSS configurable. >> > > True, though given the variable nature of branches across projects it > doesn't seem like something one would completely control via CSS (unless > you just mean USE COLOR vs USE BLACK).
