Peter,

Note that bold is not always as obvious as you think ... I don't think, I've noticed that difference ... also when the hierarchy button is clicked the package/category list changes in some subtle way (don't recall at the moment), but it is not obvious enough for me to recognize the difference and always end up trying unsuccessfully to get a menu in the package/category list before I realize that the highlight button is clicked --- perhaps eventually I will learn to recognize the differences more readily --- but it is certainly annoying right now ...

Hi Folks,

Does anyone else find this to be a problem? I can never tell whether I am on 
the class or the instance side as the button toggle is non-obvious. In fact, 
the (C) is more clearly visible on the instance side, which is counter 
intuitive.

I would rather see the name of the button change between “Instance” and “Class” 
so I always know where I am.
This would be imho confusing, because you would always see the opposite (it's a 
button, so the label should state what should happen when you click on it, not 
describing the current context).

But there is also another visual clue which always makes it obvious (for me at 
least) on which side I am: on class side all methods are bold.

Peter
