  • Icons on Android phones

    From Ed Vance@21:1/175 to All on Thu Apr 11 12:57:59 2024
    I have been learning how to know what Icons on my Android phone mean.

    Email has a smiley face icon that I can understand.
    The next two icons is are a curved counterclockwise arrow and a curved clockwise arrow.

    This BBS has at the bottom of messages symbols that look like what I will type below.

    |<< |<. Something that looks like two links in a chain. >|. >>|. and a rectangle box.
    The box is for starting a Reply.

    Is there an article where I can see what these icons mean?

    Thanks Much for helping me understand them.

    For echicken's web interface for Synchronet (what I *think* you're referring to there, example here: https://web.synchro.net/?page=001-forum.ssjs&sub=fsx_gen&thread=104809), if you just hover your pointer over those icons, you should see a description of each button functoin pop-up:

    |<< - Jump to oldest message
    |< - Jump to previous message
    & - Direct link to this message
    | - Jump to next message
    | - Jump to newest message

    You don't need an article, just use the help text that's available (at least for that web interface).

    Thanks Rob, much appreciated.

    Will hafta ask Mike where to find Help on His CCO BBS

    I went to the bottom of Your message and lightly pressed on each of the 5 icons, every one showed the same bunch of options such as:
    Open link in new Tab
    Open link in private Tab
    Save link..., etc.

    Thanks Again.

    Rob is the author of Synchronet BBS so my answer would be "whatever Rob said." :D
