Re: Fixed and flexible space icon distinctions

Visually there is no difference between a flexible space icon in Phoenix and a fixed space icon. In Chimera they address this by adding a line segment with arrows on both sides, what I'm wondering is if some sort of visual cue can be added to the flexible space icon in Phoenix so as to have it differ from that of the fixed space icon.

This is how it appears in Chimera:

I figure this is a theme issue, which is why I've posted this here.

Phoenity (by default) got the arrow for 'flexible space'. Luna displays it as dashed border line.

I decided on the dashed border to differentiate the two types but the arrow is nice as well. Perhaps if the default theme changes I'll change the Luna icon as well.

Hopefully Arvid sees this and creates some sort of distinction, or a reason for not having any sort of distinction between the two. I would definately be interested in either solution. :)
