Primary picture symbols page to get a gray scale table
Primary picture symbols page
In order to fully transform our primary picture symbols page, we needed a table of gray scale indicators. Or more properly, black and white and gray scale indicators. The page currently uses tables of various categories of indicators that, due to shear numbers — over 800 entries — has become impossible to search for the average driver.
The new table is now ready and we will next work to transform the page.
Since the advent of message centers in instrument panels, most manufacturers use the space for trouble and accessory indicators as well as various text messages for drivers. In black and white and gray scale, these indicators are useful to show systems on standby or as active with nothing to report.
We hadn’t appreciated just how many we had created over the years.
We’ve always had a table for red indicators, another for yellow/amber/orange indicators and another combining green and blue offerings. And while we had been making the gray scale counterparts, we had simply used them within the categories we are moving away from. The new table was an eye opening experience.
We started with with what we thought was a generous 25 rows. When we were done, we had 89 rows and a full 150+ entries copied over from their categories!
You can see our primary picture symbols page here.
