Browser Icons Reference

Is there a visual key somewhere that explains what all of the icons used in the browser mean?  For instance what does the orange cylinder with a hole in it mean?  I've looked through some sections in the online manual and so far and have not been able to find the section that describes the meaning of that icon.  As a new user this is frustrating. 

If it doesn't exist already, it would be incredibly helpful if all of the icons that are used in the browser were visually indexed somewhere in one big cheat sheet where users could find the icon by its appearance and then see its meaning.

Nothing in there about Browser, but depending on what section of the browser?

 

short explanation is that icons can be interpreted by the colour, white cube is a solid body, orange open cylinder is a surface body.  The icon shape is less important, the colour is correlated to the colour of the Toolbar icons in the area they were created.  Create surface (orange bodies) icons are orange.  Form area and bodies are purple, etc.

 

Might help....

I didn't realize that the colors were correlated like that.  But now that you've said it, it seems obvious 🙂  Thanks!
