| Aug 28, 2020 at 19:48 | comment | added | Robbie Goodwin | @Mawg To be blunt, your Question was not clear at first and the exposition "I was thinking of asking… " makes it less clear, not more. Anton's suggestion seems very useful, though whether SE User Experience is the right site I've no idea. | |

| Aug 25, 2020 at 11:28 | comment | added | Mawg | Yes, X is a number. Hmm, "period" sounds nice. Trouble is, I would still want to say "selected period", to remind the user that he selects what the period is. | |
| Aug 25, 2020 at 10:48 | comment | added | BoldBen | Is the X merely the display of the number of candidates found to be unemployed during the period covered by the date range? I'm a bit confused. As a suggestion you could replace "date range" with "period". it's a lot less clumsy. | |
| Aug 25, 2020 at 10:33 | comment | added | Anton | Ok, I have suggested accordingly. Not an easy problem for you, I agree. :) | |

| Aug 25, 2020 at 10:08 | comment | added | Mawg | Well, I was thinking of asking on User Experience, but consider this to be the more appropriate site. The show / hide button just toggles candidates' home locations on a map. Which shows a lot of other things. Which can also be shown/hidden by a toggle button. Without going into the whole app, or justifying features or design, I am simply looking for a shorter to text to encapsulate " Show/hide the home locations of these guys, of which there are X unemployed, according to the date range slider". | |
| Aug 25, 2020 at 9:55 | comment | added | Anton | This question relates to user interface design and logic rather than to English usage. Why conflate the two issues in one instruction? In particular, why confuse the user with a choice of date range when all they wish to do is hide unemployed? The dates of hidden candidates are of no interest to a user. | |
