Upgrade StorageOption to include text labels for the Tags, Notes, Links etc tools
I'd like to discuss adding labels for tool icons...
I find each time I open Zotero and add an item, I cannot remember the roles of the icons in the right pane; I'm left having to hover over each, then wait for the label to appear, and repeat this behaviour until I find the tool I'm after.
The icons are not entirely intuitive nor are they self-explanatory:
- the "Related" icon looks more like I'm navigating to the linked URL,
- the "Abstract" icon looks more like I'm sending a letter
- the "Info" icon looks more like adding a note
- the "Tag" icon looks more like I'm adding a label
- the "Libraries and collections" icon looks more like I'm about to navigate to a web Library
So, using the icons becomes a bit of a 'hunt and peck' operation, which is very frustrating.
Do you think we might have an option to default/display labels or icons or both for each tool ?
Cheers
