please change the autosum icon to some less fancy look. i could not find it. sorry i used to read the sum symbol a lot at the university and it did look like this: http://tutorial.math.lamar.edu/Classes/CalcI/SummationNotation_files/eq0016P.gif
Your GIF and our icon both share the same shape (the only difference is the lack of serifs, but that’s minor and would look horrible in a tiny icon). My guess is that you could not find the icon because of its color, rather than its shape.
yes the serifs would be the minor problem. it is the camo efect of the upper and lower part of the sum symbol where the grey goes too close to the grey of the background.
Kicking this over to the design team.
