Browser tab icon suggestion

[Starship Krupa]

To me, it looks cramped and unbalanced to have the icons on the Browser tabs jammed up against the left edges, as seen here (I'm showing it with a couple of them in narrow mode, but it applies to all of the tab widths):

Notice how there's plenty of real estate available to the right of the icons? To the point where they're almost touching the left edge.

This is especially true for themes derived from Tungsten, as Tungsten doesn't have that vertical line separating the icon/text from the expand arrow.

What I've taken to doing is moving the icons to the right by several pixels so that they're more centered.

As seen here (using Midnight Blue as an example):

If you have the images open in an editor anyway, try it.

Here's an example of images that can be resized as well. I make the focused and unfocused equal width.

I never noticed that unselected tabs seem to be unbalanced because the icon and labels are left-justified.  Maybe its because when the tab is selected the drop-down arrow makes it centered.  (I tend to focus on the tab I am using at the moment.)

         

If it is an issue, maybe the tab widths should have auto-resizing when the browser is elongated?

Actually, now that I am spending the time fixating on it the smaller size of the "Notes" font is really annoying.

Shoot.  I cannot get over that now that I see it.  ? It is so obviously smaller.  The UIX is ruined for me!!!!

to add "is" between "browser" and "elongated"

Hmm... never noticed. I fixed that unknowingly by removing text altogether. Who needs text??!?!

Your pain, I feel it.

Just don't trip on how the Track View has a "Tracks" menu and the Console View has a "Track" menu and the Track Manager is in the Tracks menu in Track View and in the Strips menu in Console View.
