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.

Yes, I think a change would be good. I had drafted an eye icon myself some time ago but
didn't think the look matched the rest of the icon set and temporarily set my project
aside. Perhaps we can approach the icon set designer to see if he would be interested in
adding something like the open/closed eye? They eye seems the most logical choice to me.

Hi Isaac,
I would agree with you about the eye, but as I said we already use the
eye icon from this icon set: in color for tracking active, in b&w for
inactive.

The light bulb icons look nice, I agree to use them and not the eyes
because they are used for the tracking already.

Done. If a better suggestion comes up, we can always change the icons.
