→‎Control Icons

===Control Icons===

The six icons seen to the far right are various game controls, though it's not yet known exactly what function each provides. Comparing them to the mini-panel icons from Diablo II is illustrative.

In order, from left to right:

* Character window

* Inventory

* Skill Tree

* Party Menu

* Message Log

* Quest Log

* Game Menu

~~The six~~ Here are the equivalent icons ~~seen~~ from Diablo III, enlarged and brightened for easier comparison. Reading them from left to right, starting on the top row:* Character seems likely.* This looks like a hostile button, but last Blizzard spoke, there is no hostile option in Diablo III. A single sword is Inventory on the ~~far right are various game controls~~mini-panel in D2, so this might just be an upgrade on that, but the next icon looks more like the D3 inventory.* Inventory, with a bag icon for storage.* A Chalice? Unclear what this one does.* This looks like a Party Menu icon, ~~though~~ but it's not ~~yet known exactly what function each provides. They~~clear if there is a party window interface in Diablo III, since with the removal of hostility in games, there'~~re enlarged and brightened~~ s no need for parties; all characters in a regular PvM game are automatically in ~~this thumbnail~~a party. Still, such a window could be useful for ~~easier study~~squelching or private messaging other players.* Gears have become a common icon for the Game Options menu.

This speculative list does not include icons for the Skill Tree menu, a message log, or a Quest menu. It seems quite likely that at least the Skill Tree and Quest Menu should have icons to allow one-click access; perhaps the Chalice is one of these?
