If some option is not available disable it. Don't keep it enabled and show dialog "this option is disabled" (this is not a quote!). However it is a bit mysterious why user cannot read help while installing stuff? -- 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.

But it is easy to reproduce. KDE -> Yast -> software management -> mark something big for installation -> accept (i.e. install) -> installation progress dialog will appear -> observe the "help" button (is enabled) -> click it. -- 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 help is contextual if i'm not mistaken, it's not a general help browser. So if it says, "wait.." while installing packages, it looks only natural to me.

Then please disable it. Consider paste: a) paste is enabled all the time, when the clipboard is empty and user selects paste you show "clipboard is empty" b) paste is enabled all the time except the clipboard is empty Which design you prefer? Me -- (b) because it saves user's time. -- 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.

Ladislav, if "help" has only to say "there is not help" or "help is not available" then it is good to disable help, so user would not be bothered with pointless "help". This applies to any other feature -- if you have feature A only for displaying text "A is not available", disable it. -- 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.
