What about toolbars? Those almost universally have both text and icons for each item. Why should menus be any different?

- manwe150 4mo agoToolbars (pre office-ribbon design era) were understood to only have frequently used items which are the ones that also happen to have icons. Then the office-ribbon thing happened, and everyone complained about that because it meant everything had to have an icon and everyone had to memorize what every icon meant (I’m exaggerating slightly)
- stouset 4mo agoToolbars already focus on the most-used actions one wants to perform. A menu contains everything.
