Maybe its just me, but whenever there are two block dices and one is chosen, I get the feeling that the dice that is faded out is the one that gets chosen.
Anyone else feel the same? Yes. I know.. its a matter of getting used to,
but it led me to think: maybe instead of fading out the block dice not chosen, the client could highlight the chosen dice instead?
Just a thought... |

Not sure what the international standards is for this, but I've seen application using both version (fading selected, and fading non-selected). As long as it's consistant through FFB what is chosen, I have no objections, but I can see the how it can be unusal if you're not used to it. |

I guess... unless anyone can point to a scientific study of what is generally more intuitive, it might not be an idea to change it "back"
How about doing both? Highlighting the chose & fade the discarded? |

The most intuitive is just hiding the one(s) not selected |

Just a sidenote: If we change something, then the wording should be changed from the wrong "select a block dice" to the correct "select a block die" as well... |

The idea about highlighting the chosen and fade the discarded is a good idea.
I second that.
(i find the current the most intuitive, i disliked the former version.. i guess we are just wired different ) |
