I can't find the control to save my modified Account Balances report below.

Windows 11 Home X64: R57.16. Build 271.57.16. Recent update.

have you hovered over the icons ?
looks like they may have changed the "save" icon - 2 steps to the right of the Printer ?

Yeah, that green icon 2 items over from the printer icon looks like an old floppy disc which usually means save.

The prior icon was so apparent … wonder why someone felt the need to change it?

they changed from the 3" floppy to the 5" floppy or even the 8" original floppy

There is a Preference which adds labels to the icons.

It is so ironic that the "standard" is an icon of a media that at least the last two generations haven't used, but they still know it means save.

You got to give the graphic designers something to do every once in a while. 🤣

P.S. I have the same icons, and yes, the "green floppy" is the save button.

as @Rocket J Squirrel mentioned - Edit — Preferences — Reports & Graphs — Report Toolbar — Show Icons & Text

At times in the past, I have wished for an option the just shows the text without the icons.

People think that icons are "intuitive", but in reality, with very few exceptions you just learn what they mean.

Thanks, all. I'm dealing with what is likely a temporary vision problem. So, in addition to not picking up that the green thing was supposed to be a new version of the floppy disk, my enlarged mouse pointer was obscuring the hover text. Personally, I think the notion of intuitive interface was invented primarily to excuse failure to go through the expensive process of writing and verifying user documentation. Have you ever gone through the list of "intuitive" gestures for a touchscreen?

Wow! I never really thought much about this one, but now that you mention it, this one that takes me forever to learn even a couple of these!
