Okay, I'll spend some more time with it. While I have your ear, can I request color blind compatibility? http://i.imgur.com/WHA3BHw.png http://i.imgur.com/WHA

I think there are red and green elements there, but can't tell which is which. Also, I don't know how to set them to red or green specifically as I can't seem them. :)
Could you maybe include a check mark and an X or some other non-color dependent means of portraying that information?
- gorhill 12y agoI did enter an issue 6 months ago to make it color-blind friendly: https://github.com/gorhill/httpswitchboard/issues/52 https://github.com/gorhill/httpswitchboard/issues/52 I know nothing about color-blindness though, so I will need the input of color-blind people. If there is an option to use blue instead of green, would that work?
- RobotCaleb 12y agoThat would work for some. The best path would be to not solely rely on color for information representation. Add some other visual element, such as a pattern to the color, or a small icon. I'll chime in on the issue.
- webmaven 12y agoAnd even to the extent that color is being used to convey information, don't rely solely on hue, make sure colors are distinguishable by value as well (in the case of text backgrounds, this is sometimes a better option than a pattern).
