Well, I kinda disagree. They each toggle a different aspect of the graph.

I don't think this is how they should work. I'm more inclined to say "whether tissues are shown and whether the ceiling is shown is more of a preference - so move this back to preferences". And have simply the button left that turns that ceiling on and off. What do others think of this idea? > Thank you for your careful thoughts.

I think that's what my idea would do. We'd still have the ability to toggle the graph on and off right there, but would move the "modifiers" to the preferences. /D _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list [email protected] http://lists.hohndel.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
