Render slots are listed from 8 to 1 instead of 1 to 8. When the list is top-down, it should go from 1 to 8.
At the very least, going from 1 to 8 would make the first few render slots closer to the mouse pointer, but in my opinion, reading top to bottom is more natural for a list or passage.
@billrey do you have some design task or future wish to improve statusbar info when you use a tool? Or to move to the viewport corner.
For example instead this
this
or this
I have made the proposal in RCS
Ah ~! I have considered it .
I like colored version.
What about color shortcut key ?
Hello.
Can someone point out to me why the eye icon for modifiers had to change?
I found out that there are new icons for global (monitor) and local (eye), but where is the difference and especially why is it necessary for modifiers?
My point is, its confusing that the Outliner highlights the eye symbol and on the other hand the modifiers are using the monitor (which isnt as selfexplanatory). Since there seems to be no conflict between local or global, why not use the eye like in 2.7 for the modifier section?
Btw I like it very much that we have the option to manage whats visible in the outliner.
There was a long discussion about those icons, the difference is that local visibility affects only the object itself, while the global one also affects linked objects and instances within the same blend file. Thatâs why the modifiers have the monitor icon, their visibility is global.
That said, it is indeed a bit confusing imo, but itâs a compromise, at least for 2.80 I guess.
For new users , Itâs clear. I didnât have use 2.79.
Human eyes canât see object.
Show/Hide modifier in Viewport = Monitor icon
Try to put it on RCS. This is good idea
Done
The black onâŚlighter-black is litteraly head ache inducing. Where as 2.78 is change-able to bright and colorful. Right now I have to guess what does what
The 3D cursor or something related to it makes it so as simply clicking on a object or placing stuff is a mess. For example yesterday while working on something I needed to trace part of a picture I had put in as a refrence. First the line to make a simple trace doesnât stand out because those are black and right now the grid for the bottom isâŚalso grey. That made it total guess work to where the drawing line (bazie in this case) was in part because the 3d cursor, placing things and all that related stuff makes no sense.
Compare that to tinkercad or 3ds max (for example) and they stand out much better with collorfull cheerful highlights that are easy to see.
Lastly itâs way to easy for what ever you make to get lost. is their an reason their a reason the grid you get when first starting a new project isnât âbottomâ and hard so as you donât accidentally loose things and also give it a beep sound when to try to go under it?
On top of that: AutoCad does one thing pretty well tinkercad (for example again) theirâs a nice cube in the corner it says top botom right left etc. like this would make it a lot less of a learning curve and more fun to work with blender 
Speaking of statusbar info, when you use a tool we still have some inconsistency there.
While for inset operator info is placed at topbar
this menu shouldnât be called âNodeâ, it should be âEditâ or Modify" and âAddâ is the one who should be âNodeâ,âCreateâ or whatever.
That^ Adobe photoshop has a setting for colorfullness. I donât like adobeâs black on black nonsense either. It can be changed from a light black on a dark matte black by way of a setting that says light or dark theming
Either way a light grey on a flat black background ground brown text doesnât make sense.

You can change themes in preferences:
Compared to the horizontal version, vertical version advantages may be that there is more space available for many more items and it is clearer to understand due to the clear separation between items. As a disadvantage, it occupies a lot of vertical space in viewport and it can be intrusive with elements of your scene.
Just mentioning this, I do not have a position taken on which version I prefer.
I have the same problem, I preffer horizontal version, but its true that for new users the vertical layout is better.
can we get this this function but with cylinders and circles so as to be able to see radius and diameter for the working object as though it was a square.
it would help allot for people like me in the 3d printing world mixing cad and blender.
also i noticed a small problem using scale and the keypad.
in object mode if i scale a square and press left keypad it scales up in tiny increments and if i press downkey it scales down
if i scale a cylinder they both scale down but in different amounts of increments.
seems a bit odd
im unsure as to why left isnt used to scale down and right to scale up and up down keys used for larger increments.
