Which of the 3 buttons does which of the 4 commands listed next to them?
Start black and start color?
This is the correct answer. There’s even a slight plastic indentation to let the user know that both of the buttons in question are “start” buttons.
I think the design is fine.
That’s also how I saw it. Nonetheless, that’s really poor design.
I didn’t notice the indent until you pointed it out. It’s probably slightly more apparent in person
Technology Connections would say: Read the manual.
you kidding? he’d do a whole rant on how design should be intuitive and you absolutely shouldn’t need to read the manual for something as basic as this
probably pull out a whole international standard on button design
Technology Connections would say: Read the fucking manual.
FTFY
Ah yes, if I remember right he referenced this when he said it.
Indeed, it’s terrible. And the button on the far right is for toggling wifi.
Push the white button to make it start in Black mode.
Red is stop, white is start in black and white mode, green is start in color mode.
A few of you mentioned the “indent” - I never even saw it until I zoomed way in on the photo I took after you mentioned it. I can’t even see it in person. My vision isn’t great, but I think that suggests even more strongly a bad design.
Completely valid as accessibility is extremely important and not having it accessible for people with poor vision automatically makes it a bad design
You shouldn’t need an indent to make it clear what all the buttons do lol
Terrible design.
Looks fine, no issue with the design.
This honestly straightforward…
