Bug Description

This is about the use of red and green when editing which edges and corners the cursor goes to in order to activate a feature. This is a problem for people with red-green colour blindness, as they will have difficulty seeing which corners and edges are set to do what. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_blindness#Red.E2.80.93green_color_blindness

I suggest using different colours, or icons, with a key as to what they mean.

I agree,
Switching between red and green confuses the retina, even for folks who don't have colour-blindness.
