3.5.22--color coded icons? Empty 3.5.22--color coded icons?

Post  barte Sat Jun 25, 2011 4:50 am

I now see ETA on trackback--thank you. But just thinking about the new dashboard design, I wonder if some color-coding--at least as an option--might be helpful. The old dashboard worked well that way: seeing, for example, the red and green dots, versus two red ones, told me at a glance that this was miles to go on a route, not miles hiked. The new icons are more sleek looking, but I'm finding they take longer to master. One thought: how about a different color for the different categories: Viewer mode, GPS tracking mode, Track logging mode, etc.?

I don't have a problem with the larger size, by the way. The reason: I can toggle the dashboard on and off with a touch. Great feature! But I wouldn't mind if the smaller numbers, such as the decimals in the mileage, were a bit bigger, even if the larger numbers were a bit smaller.

Hi,

Thanks for your comments;

About using different colors for categories, may be a solution.

The size of decimals: it is difficult to find the correct size for all people Smile
