Because it has no meaning. A volume level of "0" should not be something between "low" and "mute". It should one of them. The icon exists because whoever wrote the code in the first place, decided they absolutely had to have this icon. > What is the problem of using the "0" icon for 0% volume if the audio is > not muted? What is the problem of using the "low" icon for 0% volume then? If the audio is not muted, it is low. It seems rather pointless to have two different icons for 0% and 1% where the 0% icon is not mute. Just make them the same, and get rid of the special case for 0 in the code. -- dobey _______________________________________________ Usability mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/usability
