The first time I took notice of this in a non desk top application
was in Gmail. Both yahoo and gmail use 2 part button for
%u2018reply%u2019. Its usage is becoming fairly common and seems very
useful when used appropriately.
The difference usually shown between a two parts or one part click
(text with an arrow mark) is the presence or absence of a vertical
line between them. I am not sure if this is intuitive especially for
novice users. A good example of this is in yahoo mail.
%u2018Reply%u2019 is a double part whereas %u2018Move%u2019,
%u2018More actions%u2019 and %u2018View%u2019 menus have only one
action.
I haven%u2019t tested it but I also doubt if this is accessible.
