Re: [Sugar-devel] [Feature] [DESIGN] Enhanced Color Selector
Click to change stroke color: = Outline Click to change fill color: = Body These are OK (ie, I vote -0), but personally, I'd go with Outline and Fill. I think that kids understand fill just as well, and it has the advantage of being the more technically-correct term.

We may not even need the instruction at all. I think just using Body: and Outline: labels could suffice.

[Sugar-devel] [Feature] [DESIGN] Enhanced Color Selector
Hi, a lot of work has been going into enhancing the color selector [1]. The mockups can be seen at [2]. Now we should settle on one design and land it if possible. Would be a pity we would fail when we are so close. I think the latest designs brings us a big step forward, when you think about the current design. In the design meeting and the ml-thread the '+' layout and the rows of XOs were favored. Eben brought as well the 'static rows with separated fill/stroke' on the table. Let's try to find an agreement.
