GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 395691
Not much difference between good and bad signature graphics
Last modified: 2020-06-06 08:52:03 UTC
I found it a little difficult, at first glance, to immediately see the difference between a good and bad signature when using the seahorse nautilus "Verify signature" function. A good signature has a big red wax seal containing a small green tick, and a bad signature a slightly broken big red wax seal containing a small red cross. In my opinion there should be a more obvious difference in the graphic - say make the wax seal green for a good signature and red for bad. Or maybe make the tick and cross graphics a lot larger. Other information: Red/green colour blindness issues? Having a green wax seal kind of breaks the whole wax seal metaphor. The seahorse nautilus bindings rock - they're very useful when working with signed files and detached signatures.
screenshot?
Created attachment 115960 [details] screenshot These are the bad, good and unknown signature icons respectively at 48x48. The difference is harder to tell at 22x22 where currently there are just the good and bad signature icons that are the same except the 'x' and the 'check' are removed.
seahorse-plugins is not under active development anymore: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Infrastructure/Infrastructure/issues/257 It had its last code changes many years ago: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/seahorse-plugins/-/commits/master Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect reality. Please feel free to reopen this ticket (or rather transfer the project to GNOME Gitlab, as GNOME Bugzilla is deprecated) if anyone takes the responsibility for active development again.
