CJQF> Hi list,
CJQF> I am wondering what the policy is on naming conventions in terms of
CJQF> tools, the QGIS interface, and map items. For example:
CJQF> I suggest that the text 'Legend' above the layer list should be changed
CJQF> to 'Layers'. Technically this isn't a legend: "A map legend can be
CJQF> defined as the reference area on a map that lists and explains the
CJQF> colours, symbols, line patterns, shadings, and annotation used on the
CJQF> map." The legend of course, it what we add to the map in the map
CJQF> composer, but what we are currently calling the legend is, in actual
CJQF> fact, simply a list of layers .
CJQF> I know this is really just a matter of semantics, but it has been
CJQF> mentioned before, and I think it's important to get these things right ;-)
