--- Comment #8 from Vincent Untz
Changing the enabled/disabled status via double click is there, at least in the Qt UI: A double click on a table item sends an "activated" event which the repositories module uses to toggle that enabled/disabled status.
So it's not possible to edit autorefresh directly in the list. That's why I opened the bug :-) It would be a simple click on the check mark. Sounds really like something I'd want to do.
Usability wise, in all my past experienced this would be a step back because this is the kind of widget that is easily misused. Once an editable table is there, there would be little incentive for application developers to provide a proper UI for editing whatever that table displays. Just look at how the wizard tree is currently misused as a (poor, screen space wasting and ugly) replacement for tabs.
Hrm. I don't really agree with this argument. First, I'm pretty sure quite some users are expecting the "click on the check mark in the list should work" point. And second, the fact that people can write bad UI with a feature is orthogonal to providing the feature if it's expected -- just have guidelines and make sure people don't write bad UI. -- 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.
