Windows 10: Has the WiFi Icon in Action Center Changed?

I must confess that I haven't paid much attention in the past, but I was having some connection problems yesterday and spending more time than usual thrashing around in the Action Center. The WiFi icon looked funny to me - it has this little dingus at the upper right see attached image that I don't remember seeing in the past. It may have been there all along, but I just don't remember seeing it. At any rate, the WiFi icon that shows in the task bar does not have the dingus.Couple of questions:1. Is this a new icon?2. What the heck is that thing anyway? Is it supposed to represent an ant

:)

 

Is it possible to change the position of the action center icon?


I would like to change the position of the clock and action center on the system tray (like win 10 does with anniversary update), other system tray icons like power and wifi are changeable but the clock and action center isn't. Is this possible?
