I find Leito's first suggestion self explaining, very appealing, and with a kind of certain calming effect, at least on me
It's my favorite as well:
- There's branches → "Branch view"
- There's horizontal green blocks that remind of elements in a list → List pane

Cactus!
Is it April 1st already?
Self-explanatory effect -> Zero. No desert around here. Needle-phobia quite omnipresent, I would expect.

I'd like to get the old icon back :/
And the color filters icon isn't really an improvement as well

Relax, I made something for you hopeless philistines:
Code: Select all
+ Scripting got a new command.
Name: SetButton
Action: Replaces a toolbar button image with one from a file.
Syntax: setbutton(key, [file], [large=3], [flags=1])
key: Button key.
file: Image file.
Defaults to the selected/focused file.
large: 1 = Small image (16 x 16)
2 = Large image (24 x 24)
3 = Both [Default]
flags: (bit field)
1 = Refresh the Toolbar when the replacement is done. [Default]
Remarks:
- The file can be larger than the image in which case it is
automatically shrunk.
- These changes are not permanent but last as long as the session.
Examples:
setbutton "flatview"; //replace small and large "flatview" image with the selected image file
setbutton "flatview", "C:\Cactus.png" , 1; //replace small "flatview" image with "Cactus.png"
setbutton "flatview", "C:\Cactus.png" , 1; //replace large "flatview" image with "Cactus.png"
Wow, apart from getting rid of cherries I see lots of interesting uses for this...

Wouldn't it make more sense to rename that command to SetButtonImage?
Apart from that: I don't think that people want to execute a button image changing script on each XY start so
can you find a way to let it make its changes permanent (as a flag)?

Yes, SetButtonImage is better.
No, impossible, these images are part of the executable.

No! how about a new section in the ini that maps images to button keys?

Yes, that would work.

Good is the design left, only the stem should be removed.

Cherries are - in my view - a bit too intrusive and definitely not self-explanatory.

Better idea: You can state folder (relative to <xydata>) in a new tweak, e.g. "
PatchImagesPath=Patch", and place image files there, one for each button you want to patch, e.g. "flatview.png". That's it. XY handles the rest on startup.

BTW, I gave up. Before you burn my house I go back to a slightly modernized version of the original icon. Put the pitchforks down...

At this point, I think calling that folder something like ToolbarTheme / ButtonTheme is okay. Granted that foldername can be changed, but "Patch" as default is a little generic.

Patch was just an example. You call it what you like.
