New Op Shapes


Submitted for your approval...

Or not.

These are provisional still (as are all the icons, etc., being used in the IDE at the moment) and, contrary to popular impression, I am open to suggestions.*



(larger version)

Part of the reason for the delay in getting the level of case editing back up to the level(?!) achieved in PhoEdit3 has been that I didn't want to proceed until I had a provisional set of new icon shapes.

Now that I do, FULL STEAM AHEAD!

---------------------

* Note that this is just another "proof of concept" illustration that I whipped up using OmniGraffle. Remember that the real things will be drawn in view subclasses using bezier paths ... so the simpler the shape, the better. Compositing images to the views is of course another possibility, but would probably result in a lot of overhead (and headache!) when it came to resizing. (No, I haven't tried it, so that's based on impressions based on my own level of programming expertise (cough cough); I know I would have to scrap the current view scaling option. The proof of the antithesis then is left as an exercise for the reader!)
