Summary

Throughout the SpikerSoft platform, several icons and UI elements appear misaligned or off-center within their containers. This affects both vertical and horizontal alignment, leading to inconsistent visual presentation. A global review of alignment properties is recommended to ensure uniformity and proper centering.

Issue Description

Multiple sections across the site (e.g., navigation menus, profile panels, family dashboard, and travel modules) show icons and text that are not properly centered. Some elements appear slightly offset or unevenly spaced, suggesting missing or inconsistent CSS alignment properties such as items-center or text-center.

Environment

Property Value
Application SpikerSoft
Module Global UI / Layout
Environment Production
Browser Firefox / Chrome
Operating System Windows 11
Version v2026.10.01a
Device Desktop

Preconditions

User navigates through multiple sections of the site (e.g., Family, Travel, Dashboard).

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open SpikerSoft and log in.
  2. Navigate through different modules (e.g., Family, Travel, Profile).
  3. Observe icon and text alignment within containers and buttons.
  4. Note inconsistent centering or spacing in several areas.

Expected Result

All icons and text should be properly centered both vertically and horizontally within their containers, maintaining consistent spacing and alignment across the site.

Actual Result

  • Icons and text appear slightly misaligned or off-center.
  • Some containers show uneven padding or inconsistent alignment.
  • Visual balance varies between modules.

Evidence

  • Observed across multiple sections including Family, Travel, and Profile menus.
  • Misalignment visible in icons and placeholder elements.

Impact

  • Reduces visual consistency and polish of the interface.
  • Affects overall user experience and perceived design quality.
  • Minor but widespread UI issue.

Frequency

Always

Reproducibility

100%

Severity

Low (UI/UX enhancement)

Suggested Improvement

  • Conduct a global audit of icon and text alignment across all modules.
  • Confirm that containers use proper alignment properties such as:
    • items-center for flexbox alignment
    • text-center for text elements
    • Consistent padding and margin values
  • Apply standardized spacing rules to ensure uniform visual balance.

Thanks for the eye for visual polish — that's a valuable instinct in a tester.

Closing this one as too broad to act on: "review all icons across the site" has no point where it's verifiably done, so it can't be fixed or re-tested. Your screenshots did surface real problems, though, and they've been moved where they can be fixed:

  • Family page avatar / role icons → tracked in #1158 (confirmed bug).
  • "Ver inicio público" / "Volver a mi panel" buttons, icon sits above the text → a real bug in how that button is built: the <mat-icon> sits inside an @switch block, so Angular Material can't project it into the button's icon slot and it loses its alignment. Fixed alongside #1160.
  • Profile card headers ("Acerca de", "Hacer una donación") → we checked these and they're vertically aligned; the gap between icon and title is intentional spacing, not a defect.

Tip for next time: the reports that get fixed fastest name one page, one element, what's wrong, and what you expected — e.g. "On / (signed in), the globe icon in the 'Ver inicio público' button sits higher than its text; expected it centred." If you spot other misaligned icons, please open one issue per element with the URL and the element circled in the screenshot.
