Thanks a lot ! I favor linear and calm environments.. florjanc

You're welcome. AssistiveTouch on iPhone is an accessibility feature designed to help users perform actions without using physical buttons or complex gestures. Most people, especially those who don't have disabilities don't need to use this feature. I'm not sure it has anything to do with having a linear or calm environment?
