https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=840672 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=840672#c0 Summary: module firewall of yast in ncurses only shows startup part Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Factory Version: 13.1 Milestone 3 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: SUSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: f.de.kruijf@gmail.com QAContact: jsrain@suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:22.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/22.0 Starting yast as root on a console YaST2 is started in ncurses mode. When selecting the firewall module one can select several subscreens. The default is Start-Up, which is show as it should. However going down to Interfaces, Allowed Services, Masquerading, broadcast, Logging Level and Custom Rules, the subwindow still shows the subwindow of Start-Up. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Give yast in a root konsole 2. Select Security and Users 3. Select Firewall in the subwindow 4. Press the down arrow to any of the above mentioned items 5. Observe that the subwindow Firewall Configuration: Start-Up does not change note that the square around the items at the left is redrawn every few seconds. Actual Results: See above Expected Results: Each item chosen in the left panel should have it own subwindow at the right. The file /var/log/YaST/y2log only gets lines added when choosing Firewall. When going up or down with the arrow buttons, nothing is added to this file.

But indeed, when I press Return I get the proper subwindow. So an acceptable solution would be a warning in the Release Notes, but fixing the bug would be nicer.

It is like this in all YaST modules which use a list (actually a tree widget) of items on the left with corresponding sub window on the right. To press Return to activate something is intuitive for a text mode UI. The reason for text mode behaviour is that you have to scroll through the list one by one and it might be very time consuming for a sub window to be created and finally to get to the item you are interested in. Only for graphical UIs you have the possibility to click directly on the item you want. -- 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.

The reason is that going through the menu items on the main page in the left column, immediately shows the sub window. So one would expect this to happen on the next windows as well, at least I do. So I would suggest to show for a short period a dialog with "Press Return to select this Menu Item" if the sub window will only be shown after pressing Return and one arrives at a new item in the list at the left. Any other improvement to enhance the intuitive UI is also OK, like a line on top of the window showing a message like "Select a menu item in the left panel and press Return to enter". -- 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.
