I don't think adding emblems to the icons in the toolbox is a good idea; it would add a completely new way of giving information to the user, and it would clutter up the toolbox visually. What would be good, I think, would be to add this information to the selection indicator in the statusbar. That already gives selection state information, so extending that makes sense. I meant to add the emblem to the cursor, which takes the shape of a selection tool when one is selected. Sorry, I should have been clearer I added the icons on May 2015 ( https://cgit.kde.org/krita.git/commit/?id=bdc4db9abea7b6ce8be97c5633ba802a9887ef1e ) but they never were linked to the action due to technical limitations at that time. Since this time, I poked probably two or three time about it but still this technical limitation. I remember a rewriting was necessary to support this type of feedback. Ah, right -- now I get it. I've edited the subject for clarification. If this is cumbersome to implement, then perhaps adding these indicators to the status bar could serve as an adequate substitute. |
