利用者:Jeske/Active Selected Visuals Cleanup Proposal Completed
(old) 2.57 Outliner
| Unactive | Active | |
|---|---|---|
| UnSelected | 
|
 active unselected : circle around object icon in "active" color and black text
|
| Selected |  selected : circle around object icon in "selected" color (black text)
|
 active selected : circle around object icon in "active" color AND white text
|
The outliner visuals have these undesirable problems:
- the colors and methods used are not consistent with either the 3dview object mode, or edit-mode active and selected objects
- shift-clicking an item to remove it from a selection appears to do nothing, as the visual changes from
(selected unactive - selected color circle around icon) to 
(unselected active - active color circle around icon). This is partially ambiguous because the active and selected colors are almost identical in 2.57, but the real issue is using non-orthogonal visuals (the circle around the icon). - Even if the active color is changed to be more distinct, determining active and selection state requires the user to do boolean combination of the circle icon highlight and the text color, which is highly unintuitive.
Outliner (as committed in 2.57a)

This solves our two identified problems:
- shift-clicking a selected unactive item results in a clear response, as the item changes from to
- any items with circles around their icons are selected. any item with white-text is active. No more boolean comparisons of the two states are required to determine active and selected state.
