    First one are method name, second one are status name.

    
    def open_file_dialog(self):
           self.dialog_file_open = True
           pass
    
    

    Yoda level preference war.

      I tend to add is to booleans toreally differentiate between a method name and a status.

      def open_file_dialog(self):
          self.dialog_file_is_open = True
          pass
      

      That way, it’s easier for my dumb brain to spot which is which at a glance.

    I’m truly torn with this. The first one seems sensible (action -> target) and easier to read and reason about (especially with long names), while the other one looks more organized, naturally sortable and works great with any autocompletion system.
