It not right, you not adds things without any reason. In the toolbar there isn't place to text, so use icons with a tooltip instead. In button in dialog have a place to text, so not need a icon and a tooltip. Syntax Highlighting colours is for **highlighting** the code, and the icons in the symbols tree is for distinguish between kinds of symbols (yes, is not matter what is the icons in the symbols tree, it just need to be different), etc - for each thing in the UI have any reason! > > P.S.
