Hi,
In 4.1, there is a feature to hide and unhide tables from the navi
panel. I already mentionned that I find the black X scary (looks like
I'm about to delete the table), even if there is a "hide" hint.
How about using this "disconnect" icon to replace the black X, and this
"connect" icon for the reverse operation?
Connecting and disconnecting might have a strange conotation as well :
in practice, the database is not 'disconnected' it is just hidden.
How about an icon with a lit and dark lightbulb? Or with an open and a
closed eye? I believe these are used in graphical software (like The
Gimp) to make layers/objects visisble.
We already use the eyes for tracking. Here are lightbulbs from the same
icons set.
