Color blind friendly icon? #37

Open ascendbruce opened 5 years ago

Hi @maximelebreton, just saw your crowdfunding campaign, supported immediately. Thanks for making this super useful extension.

However, I wonder if you consider adding (maybe configurable?) on/off labels in the toggle icon?

Example: iPhone's Settings app > General > Accessibility > On/Off Labels

@ascendbruce yep, it's possible with a badge (on/off) text on the browser action (https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/browserAction#method-setBadgeText)

would this render be suitable?

And just for asking, I suppose the toggle position is not enough? https://github.com/maximelebreton/quick-javascript-switcher/issues/1

@maximelebreton In fact, I don't know. I have normal vision. Brought this up because I recently read some stories about this. Thought it could be a nice enhancement.

I set my display to greyscale to "simulate", and the new design is still sort of hard to tell (other than the toggle position).

But you probably want to gather more feedbacks about this. Thanks again for everything you have done!

In the current icon, the color doesn't just change -- it also moves from the top left to bottom left. It's not extremely obvious, but it works. As long as you do something like that in the new icon (changing the shape or layout of the toggle/icon), it should be good.
