Am I the only one that sees this as a usability issue? Having a
similar icon, a magnifying glass, for two very different features is
annoying. I like to use the magnifying glass for search (which
admittedly is not an intuitive icon since a magnifying glass makes things
bigger--you have to imagine Sherlock Holmes in his deerstalker with his
big magnifying glass in one hand and his pipe in the other). For
shrinking/enlarging fonts I like the icons with A->A+
and A->A- on them. We'll see if my
font changes make it through. It's klunky, I know, but it conveys
the idea well.
