Bugzilla – Bug 11142
Items should have icons on the left side in almost all cases.

Plain text is just too plain. :)
Dean, Items under Music Library such as Albums, Artists, etc already have SC icons, but these are also missing on Fab4. Let me know if you want a separate bug for this.
Fletch, that's a separate bug, this is more of an enhancement request. Thx.
Scratch that, let's combine these, I spaced and thought that those icons were extant on Controller. They are not. Sooo, Noah... We should have icons on the left for the home menu items and items under Music Library, Extras, Settings, etc... Essentially, every item should have an icon or placeholder, with the possible exception of specific artists (which we may be able to add later).
Heh, I was seconds away from hitting commit on a new bug. Note that on Fab4 you get 3 menu items per page in IR mode and 5 menu items in touch mode whether there are icons or not. On the SBC you get 9 items without icons or 4 items with icons. For that reason, I was wondering whether this was intentional on the SBC. Regardless, I think they should be added for Fab4.
I appreciate the filing of the bug, but actually we're already planning on doing this anyway - it just hasn't been implemented yet. I'm not trying to dissuade people from filing feature enhancement requests - these are great - but in this particular case we're jumping the gun a bit. We're actually looking at a "grid" icon treatment for the touch version of the home screen, and a "list" version (what we have today) for the remote-control view. (This distinction would occur on the home menu only). In the case where the menu option is purely navigation ("settings," for example), we'll probably use a generic icon such as a folder, and for those where an icon would be more obvious, including all apps (a radio tower for internet radio, brand logos for pandora, rhapsody, etc.) Good feedback. Stay tuned.
I'm leaving this open as a to-do for Noah to create the substantial number of new iccons for the UI.
Are we still missing any icons? If not please set to close.
I think we have all the icons we're launching with; please re-open if needed.
