Object's compound mode icons

[Laganama]

Hi there, layers compound mode icons (Subtract and Intersect) should be the other way around.

Thanks @Laganama.
I'm checking if this is already logged and will do so in case it's not.

EDIT: Already logged and updated now.

Still in beta 2.2.0 (1903)

Hi @MEB, still in beta 2.5.0 2402. I think it must be a very easy fix for your developers

Hi @Laganama,
Thanks for raising this up. Somehow it fell off our radar. I will make sure this gets fixed.

This seems to be a much bigger problem for development than I expected…

it is odd, and a bit worrying, that silly mistakes like this, and elsewhere where icons are missing, for example, take so long to correct. If the Developers choose to ignore this sort of thing, one would hope that the QA team would step in, but apparently not!

Hahaha, I’m not surprised. It has always been like this with Serif. This issue fits perfectly with what we’ve experienced for a decade, both broadly and deeply.

Allow me to point out that competitors are producing excellent, up-to-date software— and better. You don’t have to settle for this level. I didn’t expect anything to have changed after months away from the software and forum. And certainly not if everything is still the same. Including the fact that a tiny fraction of the forum's members respond to 99% of all posts. It is possibly the least progressive place I've encountered on the internet, by far. Not an easy feat.

Just swap those two icons, Serif, and get your processes and priorities in order. And everything else. How many decades do you need to learn this?

Hi @Laganama, @PaulEC, @Deperditus Cliens,
I’m really sorry for the delay in getting this fixed. Due to reasons beyond my control, I wasn’t able to fulfill what I promised in my previous post. This has nothing to do with the dev team. I’ve made one last attempt to pass the issue directly/privately to them, in the hope that it will finally be resolved. My apologies.
