Summary

0000725: trash icon is not obvious

Description

I am a new user and noticed that every time I encountered the "weird icon" (which by now I realized is a trash bin), I had to use the tooltip to understand what that button would do (one time the tooltip didn't come, so I had to use the button and see what it performed ;)).

By now, I am used to the "weird button" so I know its meaning, but I believe first impressions are important, so that's why I report :) Please use a more default or more clear icon for delete actions.

(0003055) ddennedy (developer) 2009-06-03 06:12	I think it is very good, actually.

(0003099) mxttie (reporter) 2009-06-03 23:42	why not use default icons for default actions? :) it is more consistent and immediately clear for the user. anyway, it was just a suggestion :)

(0003100) ddennedy (developer) 2009-06-03 23:53	Yes, perhaps it should use the system icon.

(0003136) administrator (administrator) 2009-06-09 16:26	Trash icon replaced with more standard delete icon as used in project tree
