Mainly talking about the iemguis, yes. I could imagine taking away the
"-----dimensions(pix)..." headings and having boxes instead.
When it comes to labels getting cropped, i've so far only seen it
happen to the "Messages" labels in the iemguis, and now I see it
happen to the english translation as well. Maybe it would be and idea
to lose the "symbol" part of eg "Send symbol" and have a heading like
"Message symbols", besides of course to make them take up the whole
width.
And here I had a long rant about having checkboxes instead of buttons
for Init/no init until I viewed source and saw that it was already
planned...
