https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=365224 Summary: installation "hangs" when user clicks outside a popup dialog (dialogs should be modal?) Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Alpha 2 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jbohac@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Development I noticed a very inconvenient window behaviour during the installtion process. I first noticed it in the the Expert Partitioner (described here), but the same wrong behaviour is omnipresent in the installation. When I e.g. select a partition and click "Delete" a pop up dialog shows up and asks for confirmation. When, by mistake, I click anywhere outside the little popup window, the main Partitioner window is activated and brought in front of the confirmation popup window. However, there is no visual indication, that the small popup is still active (unlike in the installed system, when users see a Gnome/KDE/... taskbar containing a button for the popup window). If I press "Delete" again, nothing happens, because the popup is still active. I found I can get back to the popup using "Alt+Tab", but this is very unintuitive and I fear users will not find out. The same goes for the "Edit" button. A popup window appears and when I click outside it, there is no chance of ever getting to edit the partition unless I press "Alt+Tab". I guess the same problem can be found on other places in the installation. The same happens when I configure the address of a NTPO server, or with just about any popup dialog. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
