IDEA Icons--where are they documented?
HI
I'm using IDEA 6.0 and just now noticed that in both the project view and the editor tabs that my Java class icons have a decoration that I haven't seen before. I just configured CVS access yesterday (was using an external tool before), so it may be related to versioning--I can't find a full page description of all icon decorations.
See attached PNG. The decoration appears at the top and looks like a left arrow (green)/right arrow(red) at the top of the image--I've blown the image up to make this more clear.
Thanks
Patrick

There is a good larger point to what Patrick asks: new users often have no idea what some of the icon adornments mean. I've always thought for the sake of new users that hovering over an icon for a little bit should bring up a legend that tells you about the icon and the specific adornments it has. I'm willing to file a feature request for this if the IDEA folks have any interest in implementing this new-user-develop-with-pleasure feature.
Please do.
