https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=446508 Summary: Unexplained what should happen when switching dialog tabs in DialogTree Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Factory Platform: All OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Usability AssignedTo: mschmidkunz@novell.com ReportedBy: jsmeix@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Development In the YaST style guide http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/Style_Guide it is unexplained what should happen when the user switches between different dialog tabs in a DialogTree. A DialogTree shows a list of dialog tabs at the left, see http://en.opensuse.org/Image:Printer_mschmidkunz_rc2_overview_all.png and when the user clicks on a list entry the matching dialog tab shows up. It is unexplained what should happen when there have been changes of the values in the current dialog tab and now the user does a dialog tab switch by clicking on another list entry in the list of dialog tabs at the left. Should the dialog tab switch silently discard changes in the old tab (i.e. should the dialog tab switch have a "Cancel" funcionality regarding the old dialog tab) or should the changed values be silently stored/applied to the system (i.e. should the dialog tab switch have a "O.K." funcionality regarding the old dialog tab) or should there be no silent "Cancel" or "O.K." at all but there should be a confirmation popup what to do (i.e. ask the user whether to discard or save/apply them) if values have been chnged in the old tab? Because I do not like any "silent intelligence" in YaST I recommend to ask the user what to do. -- 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.
