[Bug 874579] Re: UI Issue: WiFi network stength hard to see with many networks.

 

Thanks cbds! Awesome response and thanks for reassigning, there are so
many packages with similar names :-)

I've attached a design break down of what I mean to help the designers
and developers understand what I'm seeing. The basic problem is that the
icons are not different enough at small scales and rely on keen eyesight
to spot a very slight different in contrast.

Title:
  UI Issue: WiFi network stength hard to see with many networks.

Status in “network-manager-applet” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When looking at the 'More Networks' drop down for the network manager
  indicator, we see that a large collection of networks can make trying
  to see the strength of a network quite hard. The Icons don't lend
  themselves to being stacked one on top of another as in the list.

  See the screenshot for an example.
