Step / play / reset tooltips and icons #164

Closed Shimon-Schocken closed 1 year ago

Shimon-Schocken commented 1 year ago

The "tooltips" of the step/play/reset buttons obscure the tab titles below them. Is there a way to cause the tooltips to pop up above the buttons?

The graphical icon of the "play" button is confusing. It suggests a single "step" action. I suggest replacing the current "play" icon with a "fast forward" icon (the graphical opposite of the current "reset" icon).

In the normal/fast/faster menu, I suggest replacing "normal" with "slow", and keeping it the default.

They do, but it should be only temporary (during hover). Most other elements also drop down on the page (the links, the select dropdowns, etc. For CSS technical reasons, putting them above the button is very difficult. For these reasons, I am not going to work on this in the near future.

Done, it looks much better!
