The "white example color in toolbar under letter on white background" is a gem.

The shapes, well it's flowcharting symbols. And I personally prefer left justified default in boxes but I get it's POLA breaking from other slide ecologies.

Pandoc slides look better and better and are almost zettelkasten with the "digression down here" flow thing.

What is particularly hilarious is that the button isn't setting the color of a line below the text but of the text itself so why is the icon changing the color of an underline?

The only answer I can think of is that they tried to set the text color on the button but then the button was entirely invisible so rather than taking a step back and realise that they might need to rethink they just coloured an underline instead.

They copied the style of the Microsoft product.

I had to look up POLA - it's the principle of least astonishment for anyone else wondering (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principle_of_least_astonishmen...)

If that is what they are call them what they are not something else.

But at least they put a name there! Icons are [already] a terrible idea if there is enough space, they just fail to explain what they are but if you make them all the same color explaining or remembering how to navigate menu's to do something gets even worse.

Like click on: this > then this > then this > then this

Becomes: ? > ? > ? > foobar!

The color picker is one of the few that could have had a self explanatory icon. Its the easiest feature to find in nearly all other applications.
