USE CASE: WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO?

Make the text in the interface consistent throughout all cases.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE AN ISSUE (OR TRIGGER A NEW FEATURE)

CURRENT BEHAVIOR

View > Color settings... -- The new window should be called "Color Settings", instead of "Choose matrix colors".

The size of all interface labels should be the same. Right now, "Missing Data" is smaller than the other buttons (and the button itself looks a bit different, not sure if that's inevitable).

No need for the box inside the window.

"Choose a Color Scheme" should probably be "Choose a color scheme:" and be aligned to the left with "Move, add or edit sliders to adjust color scheme."

The label on the left-most color handle (the one pointing to the left) is smaller than the label on the right-most color handle.

View > Labels... -- The new window should be called "Labels", instead of "Preferences". In the same window, "Set Label Font" should be changed to "Label Font" and "Label justification" to "Label Justification".

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR

DEVELOPERS ONLY SECTION SUGGESTED CHANGE (Pseudocode optional) e.g. Add a color selection class FILES AFFECTED (where the changes will be implemented) - developers only e.g. selectColor.java & settingsPanel.java LEVEL OF EFFORT - developers only trivial/minor/medium/major/overhaul (choose one) COMMENTS

    I wonder if the "Color settings..." menu should just be called "Colors..." (similar to "Labels..."). To be consistent, the new window should also be called "Colors".

    Fixed String size issue in BoundaryBox and renamed PreferencesMenu to LabelSettings

    The String of the left BoundaryBox for the ColorPicker was drawn smaller than the right one. This could be fixed by explicitly setting the font before drawing the string.

    PreferencesMenu has been renamed into LabelSettings, which is far more fitting for its current purpose (it evolved from a multi-options window).
