Mhm. Obviously there is a kind of misunderstanding as I thought as well that this part would be ready :-(
So let's see: Maybe it is technically not 100% correct to label edit/overview/single configuration buttons with the same label. My points in favor of labeling them nonetheless with the same labels are:
- consistency of user expectations (MS Windows uses only OK/Cancel, KDE uses OK/Cancel/Apply, GNOME uses OK/Cancel/Apply)
- similar actions (the dialog I opened is closed with no changes upon Cancel and closed with items either marked for changes or the changes are actually saved)
The difference I mean is not between overview or single configuration dialogs or how the different kind of dialogs is named based on the look.\ The difference is between all the dialogs that are opened from certain yast module (when these are closed, the control is returned to that module) and between the main dialog of module, which, when closed either drops all the data (Cancel) or saves them (OK/Finish). The behavior is different, saving the data is done only at this one place so I think it should be distinguished by the button label(s), I propose leaving Finish there (Cancel is fine, and Back should be dropped). -- 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.
