# Inkscape_Status_Bar_UX_Idea

A quick and dirty illustration of a more transparent and usable UX for the Inkscape status bar:

* Clear labels, only relying on icons and abbreviations where we can be absolutely sure that users will understand the purpose of an element.
* Grouping of related elements
* Elements that can be interacted with look as though they can be interacted with
