Perhaps it would be more clear to distinguish on and of states of virtual LEDs, if a light reflex on one side and a shadow on the other side caused by light from outside the LEDs is visible, if the LED are off and if the LEDs emit light from inside the LEDs, there could be a bright ring at the inside edges of the LEDs, then a less bright ring inside that bright ring and a bright spot in the middle of the LEDs and outside of the LED there could be a corona from the emitted light. Much better would be a very dark LED without any effect, if the LED is off. Theoretically it's also correct the way it's now, emitted light from inside the LEDs in the upper left corner and less brightness to the lower left corner and no corona at all, but since a monitor/display always is emitting light and the position of the bright and less bright light doesn't change, if the viewer changes the position, it could be confused with light reflexes and shadows from outside the LEDs, when LEDs are off. IOW it's not a clear choice to use this style for virtual LEDs that are turned on. However, the best approach for those virtual switches might be to add the words "off" and "on" and no LEDs at all. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
