@brianteeman could you please have a look here to make sure that it does not affect a11y.

brianteeman commented 5 years ago

From a design perspective it is better

As I said before there is an a11y issue with the code (same problem with the menu) - still trying to get a proper fix for that but it should not hold up merging this

Nice! Better than before! But i think you have to move the "counter" out of the space between the icon and his label. It's really wrong for an UI "breaking" the proximity between icon and his label.

image This type of counters, in common use and in the UI that the user expects, are like notifications and must be positioned in a more recognizable way

Furthermore, a number that appears there without a different style seems like an error, not an information

Example: image

I think if we move the number, the context is missing: 1 user 0 articles 3 modules

C-Lodder commented 5 years ago

Or just remove the counter completely?
