Carlos, Got it. Thanks.
The new tool icons seemed a little too minimalist. I went looking for an alternative. However, given your explanation, I'll use the #3 theme. -Mark From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Carlos Córdoba Sent: Monday, May 17, 2021 1:53 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [spyder] What's the deal with the big orange Xs? Hi, Those X's are only shown if you're using the Spyder 2 icon theme. That theme is incomplete (hence the X's) and it's meant to be used as a fallback when we're unable to load the Spyder 3 theme (which is still a problem on some Windows systems). Once we fixed that problem, our plan is to remove the Spyder 2 theme. Unless you're facing that problem, please switch to the Spyder 3 theme by going to the menu Tools > Preferences > Apperance > Icon theme If that's not possible for you, please try to update to a more recent Windows version. Cheers, Carlos El 16/05/21 a las 7:39 p. m., M Hagen escribió: I updated to Spyder 5. It went well, once I found a random internet post suggesting I use the conda-forge channel. I want to thank the developers for maintaining the python path from my previous release (4.2.something). The UI changes seem straightforward. My main question is this: What's the deal with the orange Xs? What are they supposed to be telling me? Why is there an X in front of the files in the file view? Why is an "X" the icon to bring up the operating system file browser? (What's wrong with a button with the word "browse" on it?) Why a big-ass X in the editor breakpoint column? The Xs are not bad. Yet, you went to a lot of trouble to minimize the tool icons (too minimal for this casual user); why the apparently superfluous Xs? Their purpose might seem obvious in the Spyder development bubble, but I'm perplexed. Please enlighten me. -Mark -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "spyder" group.
