But IMO the majority of icons is meaningless. Some even look very similar although they mean complete different things. Therefore I don't like them. > Also text below icons waste space IMO. Yes, if the icon would be meaningful (as it should) then there should be no need for extra text. > You only need to learn once what a button > does/means (even when the icon isn't that clear, > it'll still stay the same), not every time you use the program. I prefer to type a few characters to filter a (text) list to find what I want instead of wading through dozens of pictograms guessing what they could mean and then click on one. Especially, because I prefer the keyboard over the mouse anyway. Visual searching for an icon is like playing memory (which I am not good in). -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
