Am I the only one who sometimes puzzles over dual flush buttons? There are so many variations and each one seems to assume you know which bit to press for long flush and which one for short.
Just a few examples...
... and then there are the large wall-mounted ones too. Is there an unwritten convention that the larger button gives the longer flush (even though it's easier to press than the smaller one, which would be used more often)? Even then, some seem to work differently, e.g. that first one, the small and large buttons can be pressed independently, but the third one you can easily press the circular button but the crescent-shaped button must be pressed together with the circular one so they effectively work as one button.
What does everyone reckon? I'm guessing (short of timing the flush) that for these examples it works like this:
(Also, I can't quite believe I'm spending my time writing a forum post about toilet flush buttons but I guess lockdown has affected us all differently.)

- Small = short, large = long
- As above
- Circular = short, combined = long
- One dot = short, two dots = long
