Sidebar: same "+" icon performs two different actions on Cubes and Algorithms
Description
The sidebar uses an identical + icon on the right edge of two menu items, but each does something different:
- Cubes → + opens the New Collection modal.
- Algorithms → + expands/collapses the submenu of algorithm sets (OLL, PLL, …).
Both icons look the same and are placed in the same spot, so users learn one meaning ("+ creates something") and then get an unexpected result on the other item - and vice versa. The 90° rotation on Algorithms is too subtle to communicate "this is a tree expander, not a create action".
Steps to reproduce
- Open the app with the sidebar expanded.
- Click + next to Cubes → "New collection" modal opens.
- Click + next to Algorithms → submenu expands (no creation action happens).
Expected
Different actions should use different icons. A + should consistently mean "create" across the sidebar; "expand a list" should use a
tree/disclosure icon.
Recommended fixes
- Use a chevron for submenu disclosure
- Make Algorithms a plain navigable item
