(I guess your talk page can boast the most extravagant section titles.) Shouldn't {{bsq|mtKRZuq +yellow}} rather be "yellow+", if I understand your naming logic right? [[User:YLSS|YLSS]] ([[User talk:YLSS|talk]]) 12:40, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

:I think I didn’t go against my own naming suggestion in this one… :-) It is "uq" instead of "o" because precedence is given to the normal-red line; the hanging "+" leaves a ghost space for "normalred+yellow", which is not written in full. If it were {{BS-o|STR brown|STRq red}}, I’d call it '''mKRZuq red+brown''' (or actually '''mKRZo brown+red''', as there is no precedence of red over, brown, and then direction takes precedence).-- [[User:Tuvalkin|Tuválkin]] [[User talk:Tuvalkin|✉]] 16:06, 14 March 2013 (UTC)
:According to {{U|axpde}}, top-to-bottom takes precedence over across. [[User:Useddenim|Useddenim]] ([[User talk:Useddenim|talk]]) 13:37, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

::That works too: {{BS-q|mtKRZuq +yellow|}} could be '''mtKRZo yellow+'''. However, setting the precedence to favor not a direction+sense but a color, which is simpler to judge, or having a way to express that precedence (as in, say, grey+purple ''vs.'' purple+grey) makes it easier for more complex two-color (or many-color) icons, such as those featuring stations. -- [[User:Tuvalkin|Tuválkin]] [[User talk:Tuvalkin|✉]] 16:06, 14 March 2013 (UTC)
