We could also change:
- a the size of the fonts used, or
- b fixed the fact when there is no icon the space between two items
is the same as with icons
- c produce smaller icons (this is easy you do not need to know how to
program
just using a drawing tool)
when the icons get introduced I spent time reshaping them to be all 16
on 16 because
I did not want to throw away the work of diego. I introduced some
simple way to import
and save icons.
MenuIcons exportAllIconsAsGif
Note that if you change the size or produce another set of icons, it
would be good to
introduce a mechanism to specify their size and change the size
depending to the font
size.
Right now I think that b is the best think to do.
So feel free to improve
