Description: In the left bottom corner the diskette icon has RED as signal for NOT SAVED. Color Blinds (not me) are not able to see the difference! Please use a icon changing to crossed out. (example) Actual Results: no action required Expected Results: no action required Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: no action required for this.
Good point -> NEW
Invalid. Users can select from any number of project Icon themes--most of which have distinct shape modifications and not color alone when the document has changes to be saved. Sifr for example (our default when system Assistive Technologies are signaled active) shows a circle when the document has been saved. The project is mindful of the need, but the choice is the Icon theme designer.

Nothing to do about the icon theme, back to NEW
We show the non-saved status also with a (colored) dot at the toolbar Save icon. The statusbar panel should have a tooltip according SvxModifyControl::StateChangedAtStatusBarControl() with RID_SVXSTR_DOC_MODIFIED_YES/_NO but it wont show up, at least for me on Linux/qt5. The images are svx/res/doc_modified_yes_14.png, svx/res/doc_modified_no_14.png, and svx/res/doc_modified_feedback.png - and therefore themed. So it does depend on the icon theme, and if we recommend Sifr for color blind users, the distinction between yes and no must not be the colorization. See also: "Asterisk in the filename" (WF in bug 123559) and "Tiny icon in statusbar" (WFM in bug 84198; actually WF, this ticket could be a DUP).

The tooltip "The document has been modified. Click to save the document" appears over the Taskbar icon on Windows builds. But it will not appear if the Tools -> Options -> General "Extended tips" is checked active. Which I think happens functionally when an Assistive Technology is signaled in use by os/DE. So the status tooltip would need to be added to the slate of "extended" tips.
(In reply to V Stuart Foote from comment #9) > The tooltip ... will not appear if ... "Extended tips" is checked active Double-check to have this enabled not to switch it off ;-) (fallback should be to show the normal tooltip, but off-topic here)
The active icon has a rectangle now in addition to the color.

Going to revert this solution. The rectangle makes the icon even more tiny as today. Will find a better solution after resolving bug 153344.

Icons must not rely on color only, Sifr is a good example how to solve the problem. Rizal, do you have spare cycles?
