buttons became a little clumsy and less distinctive

Open r10s opened this issue 5 months ago • 0 comments

on recent master the buttons on the welcome screen (and maybe other places) became a little less attractive, looking a bit bold and a bit clumsy, less elegant.

moreover, the distinction between primary and secondary buttons are lost.

maybe the latter point, the missing distinction, making all buttons look equal is the real issue and the slightly larger/bolder font is okay (although UI is pretty large already before, cmp https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-desktop/issues/3676)

not sure, if this is on purpose and/or there are subsequent PR in the queue.

left old / right new:

the welcome screen will be revamped anyways, and also the "primary button" will probably change, however, already now, i think, we should "have" primary buttons (for things that the user will most probably tap, won't do harm) and other buttons. typical layout for that is "colored, fille" for primary, "uncolored, bordered" for secondary - as the old image. nb: it makes sense to use this button style also elsewhere in the app, esp. in dialogs at the bottom.

i just stumbled upon that, and want to bring that up. it is a minor. if this is planned for 1.44+ anyways, feel free to close this issue.
