Revisiting UI and UX ...again!

<< < (2/3) > >>

Alan:
I am always baffled when I see icons and text combined. Isn't the whole purpose of an icon to make text unnecessary? Conversely, if there is text why have an icon. Picking one or the other would go a long way towards de-cluttering the screen (which is needed IMHO).

nodcc4me:
I like the idea of icons with descriptions or descriptions with no icons. Some time ago, Tim or someone else posted a nice chart of all the RP icons along with their descriptions. There's no way I would remember what they all stand for without descriptions.  :o

Descriptions with no icons would be my choice as well.

Icons also suffer with relevance between diesel and steam.

ON28:
I'd like to see a fast clock added, and performance monitors (module temp-voltage-current)/throttle on same page. A side button for direction would be nice, more reachable with one hand than on-screen

Also, the casing needs an integral loop for a lanyard. Does anyone get a hand fatigue from the HC weight? Maybe if the HC was elongated and narrowed, there would be better weight distribution.

Yes to all.
