Just a quick addition - it’s a whole world out there, isn’t it? I am so behind the curve… anyway very useful. I am not sure why so many icon designers go for chunky designs - it’s as if they preferred bold type over regular. The little icons at the top and bottom of the screen in your own tool are more my style! But I suppose that’s just a personal preference.
Thanks again for all this. Graham > On 20 Apr 2020, at 15:39, Graham Samuel via use-livecode > <use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > > Thanks Brian, that looks really useful.
