I admit it's a bit hidden. I'm open for ideas to make it more visible.

Make that icon (and the large one on the toolbar) "greyed out" when not active and leave it colored if active. Should be visible enough to see the difference immediately

Greyed out icon usually means the button is disabled (cannot be clicked).

Maybe grey out just the red arrow:

PS: It wasn't a problem before this recent change. Maybe not such a good idea?

Code: Select all

v24.50.0208 - 2023-06-23 14:46
    * Configuration | Colors and Styles | Color Filters | Enable color filters: The list 
      and buttons are no longer disabled if the checkbox is unchecked. I don't like a 
      disabled interface, and it's pointless and redundant here.
    * Tools | Customize File Icons...: Same here, the list is now always enabled, 
      regardless of the setting of "Enable Custom File Icons".
    * Tools | Customize File Associations...: Same here, the list is now always enabled, 
      regardless of the setting of "Enable Custom File Associations".

Actually never spotted those icons for whole feature enable/disable as for me working state of CFA/CFI was always depicted/set by a check mark near the filter code. Never had a situation where i needed for some reason to switch off all together.
IMO instead of those buttons, it would be easier for users to find the switches if Tools > Configuration > Features have check marks added for all the CFI, CFA, etc.(surely enabled by default).

Tools > Configuration > Features is too heavy a gun. These are toggles that affect the layout of the app.

I think I'll re-enable the disabled effect in the list, that should do it.
