Icon notice for v19.90

Post by DixieCup48 »

Rely completely on Check For Updates which means do not read what has transpired in the Betas along the way to the next formal release.

At least a cursory mention of the changed Toolbar icons would have been nice. :eh:

Is it a particular icon that confused you?

One can get confused between recent file operation icon and undo and redo icons
they are very similar

As a function and concept Yes
But visually it should look different

If I can make a suggestion
the two arrow would be be more expressive about the button nature (repeat copy and move operation)

Making a good set of icons is a complex art. I like your arrows in general, but a new icon must pass so many tests, I'm sorry but I don't even have the time at the moment to write it down here. :|

That said, I'm not really happy with that green arrow as well...

This would work for me, the color red meaning action (changing the file system) as opposed to just information or locomotion.

Check out the 24px size to really evaluate it...!
