The solution of this issue involves a bigger discussion which should be started after the release of SLES 11. -- 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.

Unfortunately this module does not implement a tree of separated dialogs which I need but one single dialog with different tabs where the tabs are accessible via the tree items which I do not need. Unfortunately the layout on the screen does not show that it is one single dialog with different tabs because there is not the usual tab label style of a usual tabbed dialog, see for example http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tab_(GUI) In contrast what DialogTree results looks exactly like separated dialogs which are accessible via a tree. This leads to maximum confusion: For me because I had to implement special tricks in my code to let the single dialog with different tabs behave like a tree of separated dialogs which I do need. For the users because it does not work as it looks like (looks like a tree of separated dialogs but works as one single dialog with different tabs). -- 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.

I will experiment with a global data structure which holds the current values of the navigation tree so that it is available in all separated dialogs. In each of those dialogs I display the navigation tree on the left and on the right the actual dialog content so that it looks like what DialogTree currently shows i.e. separated dialogs with a navigation tree. If this works for me, then DialogTree can be fixed so that it shows what it actually is i.e. a single dialog with different tabs. -- 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.
