Re: [EXT] Re: Visible controls - Design canvas exception

I understood “indicator” to be:

  *   Color
  *   Density (saturation, opacity, bold)
  *   Underline, icon, background
Then, adding interactivity signal — the hover/focus + active styling.

But what counts as an indicator?


There were quite a few examples where the thing itself is thought to be sufficient, otherwise we are asking for icons on everything.


That is the ambiguity we haven't cracked.
