It adds visual complexity, however, and if the meaning is not obvious to a user, behavior could be quite confusing (clicking it - nothing happens, or letter to grandma gets inserted) - a tooltip should help here. | |

| Apr 4, 2013 at 17:07 | comment | added | rk. | Not to be nitpicking, but affordance is a physical design idea (especially if you're following norman's definition). For digital interfaces you use cues/skeuomorphs. If you look at the link you posted you will find no association of affordance with digital design. | |
