<ul class="remarkup-list">
<li class="remarkup-list-item">Introducing a new string to the UI comes at a cost: It draws attention away from what's really important, i.e. the files. I'm not saying sorting is not important, but is it really <em>that</em> important like you claim?</li>
<li class="remarkup-list-item">Why would only a single icon get text added next to it?</li>
<li class="remarkup-list-item">The text may be partly motivated by the lack of an appropriate icon. Shouldn't we improve the icons instead?</li>
<li class="remarkup-list-item">This conflicts with <span><span class="phui-tag-view phui-tag-type-shade phui-tag-grey phui-tag-shade "><span class="phui-tag-core ">Detailed View</span></span></span>, where some of the options are more easily accessible by clicking on the table headers. Isn't this confusing for users?</li>
</ul>
<p>Suggestion for consideration:</p>
<ul class="remarkup-list">
<li class="remarkup-list-item">Add <a href="https://www.materialui.co/icon/sort" class="remarkup-link" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">well-known</a> icon to Breeze.</li>
<li class="remarkup-list-item">Put only an icon in the toolbar, but still in a quite central place so it's within easy reach (as opposed to on the very right).</li>
<li class="remarkup-list-item">Solve the problem where toolbar menu buttons don't get a downwards pointing arrow with Breeze.</li>
</ul>

<p>I'd prefer this option, but let's hear what others have to say.</p></div></div><br /><div><strong>REPOSITORY</strong><div><div>R241 KIO</div></div></div><br /><div><strong>REVISION DETAIL</strong><div><a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/D12337">https://phabricator.kde.org/D12337</a></div></div><br /><div><strong>To: </strong>ngraham, Frameworks, Dolphin, VDG, rkflx<br /><strong>Cc: </strong>anemeth, michaelh, bruns<br /></div>
