Layer Lock Icon in Colour
-
@Igull Not possible at this time, AFAIK.
Btw, you have 'Select All Locked' in the Select menu — maybe it helps?

@Igull I'm trying to avoid using color in the UI elements as much as possible. I will think of a solution for this one (maybe more contrast for the locked icons?)

A darker circle under the closed padlock icon would help, IMO.

How about to make the Unlocked hollow ?
That could solve the issue.

I like the outline for the unlock symbol. Maybe just have the lock hinge not swing outward but show a gap that it’s not closed. That plus the outline mode would work
-
When scrolling the list, small details are difficult to pick up. Since @Subpath's suggestion appealed to us, how about doing an inversion of the eye icon, or strong gray out when is inactive?

and came up with this variantsBoth stand for the closed/hidden Version

Yes, that seems a sensible suggestion if colour isn't an option - I'm assuming the colour thing is purely an aesthetic and nothing to do with the ergonomics

I think it is kind of both. It is of course aesthetic, I think that having a grey tone UI theme is better.
For the ergonomics aspect (if it belongs here): I think that having (too much) color in the UI might distract from and influence how the colors of the design are perceived, and it is more efficient to avoid colors. -
