Design Revisions
| Revision | Current Design | Issues | Changes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1. Icon Picker Update | The icon picker is very small on a HDPI screen. | Limited icon visibility, reducing ease of use and feature discovery. | Added a new icon_tool_preset boolean property to adjust the picker size in the Tool Preset Editor, enlarging and centering the icon picker. |
| 2. Tool Preset Expander | Tool Preset editor apply options are listed without context. | Lack of organization leads to a cluttered UI in the Tool Preset Editor and an oversized dock. | Implemented an expandable frame grouping preset toggle options under “Preset Application Filter” for a cleaner, and minimum height, layout. |
