Just out of curiosity - what do all of you call this blue icon that you use to change the shape of the block.

It does have a “correct” name, but it doesn’t seem to be too widely used. I’ve noticed that people have lots of different names for it so was wondering what you personally call it?

Personally, i even didnt thought about it as an individual icon, but part of the block, and i refer to it as block`s options 🤔
