Hi Devs,
There are two different standards on the action icon usage in the LiveTable:
- with icon + text - only with icon
The main problem is the lack of consistency.
Please vote on three versions: Var 1 : Icon + Text <http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Standards/ActionIcons#var1> Var 2 : Just Icon<http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Standards/ActionIcons#var2> Var 3 : Icon + Legend<http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Standards/ActionIcons#var3>
I'd normally vote for 1 but taking into account smaller screen I'm also +1 for var 3. According to "Don't make me think" var 2 should be prohibited since it forces users to think. Tooltips are very bad for the same r'eason. So +1 for either 1 or 3 but -0 for 2 and Guillaume's option with tooltips (we can have tooltips but in addition to something more visible). Thanks -Vincent
