      maybe more contrast for the locked icons?

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

        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?

                played i bit with your idea
                and came up with this variants

                Both stand for the closed/hidden Version

                  Yes, I can do that, but I want to just pick individual locked layers.

                    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 πŸ™‚

                      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.
