Re: [Geary] UI consistency



I believe the reason for the current situation is the worry that the Archive icon is not particularly self-explanatory (and probably never will be). While the tooltip does help, my experience suggests that relying on a tooltip to explain functionality is foolish. We just went through a brouhaha on bugzilla in part because we relegated important info in the preferences dialog to a tooltip.
That's not to say we shouldn't do this, though.  We're clearly relying 
on the user being able to figure out a lot on their own, and this 
wouldn't be that much of a stretch.  The best thing to do would be to 
file a bug on bugzilla.gnome and attach your patch, so we don't lose it.
Thanks,
Robert

Even if I'm not a developer, changing this was easy.
The attached patch compiles fine and it gives what I'd like to see.

Don't you think that the Archive icon on the top right should not have the text Archive (as the trash icon on its right does not have any text)?
A tooltip is enough for new users.
