I have made a lot of advancement with the menu on the dashboard and using other icons than the default.

But this one isn't wanting to play the game.

The `material design` `drag_indicator` icon.

It isn't showing correctly.

I've copy/pasted the name from the web page, but that didn't change.  
And as you can see the other two (Telemetry and Logging) are working.

(Dumb question) (But I always ask that kind)

Why does **this one** need the `mi-` prefix and the others don't?

The built in set (without mi) only have these icons  
[https://klarsys.github.io/angular-material-icons/](https://klarsys.github.io/angular-material-icons/)  
If you want the full latest set then we have to go get them from the internet, and the mi- is the trigger to do that. (And these won't work if you are not connected to the internet)

Ah. I guess I should have worked that out.

Thanks.

(Up to my neck in Arduino stuff too just now.)
