Adding percentage symbol to icon #189

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Others have already requested brighter and bigger status bar icon which I agree 
with. Also would it be possible to add a % symbol next to the numbers to 
distinguish this icon from others like weather apps that also display numbers 
in the status bar?

I've made it as large and as bright as is possible. I agree that it would be 
nicer if there were a percent sign, but that would entail making the number 
smaller, which wouldn't be worth it.

I'm using your latest free version 6.0.1 and really like the way the number is 
shown in the status bar. But I'm also missing the % symbol - can't it just be 
added next to the number, without changing anything on the style/size?

The number already takes up the entire space allotted to the icon.  I can make 
a plugin where I shrink the number and try to cram in a small percent sign, but 
it's not a top priority right now.

Oh ok, thanks for the information. I didn't know there is only limited space 
available for the icon, as I don't have anyhing else in the notification bar, 
it seemed like the % sign could just be added. 
So I will wait for the circular icon plugin, which I think is even nicer than 
the % sign :)
