In the initial phase of my YaST Printer redesign I also played with the idea of "inline buttons" directly in meaningful text as in https://en.opensuse.org/File:Printer_jsmeix_overview_all.png
I think you can imagine what an UI or UX expert told me...
;-)
Of course with that fat button design it looks horrible but what I actually had in mind were links in HTML - i.e. "clickable text" but I guess that idea was much too disruptive at that time ;-)
I think the bigger problem is that you had 5 lines with buttons - that and having the buttons at different places in each line is what makes your draft a shock therapy for UX experts ;-) Especially the first two lines clearly don't need the text around the buttons - just [Add] [Modify] [Delete] [Print testpage] would be more than enough.
Nowadays it is the other way round: In nowadays fancy web pages one can no longer immediately see what is clickable so that one can play pot hitting - have fun!
Yes, some pages are really funny. Let's hope the trend for 2015 is not "black text on black background", because black pages look so beautiful ;-)) Regards, Christian Boltz --
It is a pity that [Tumbleweed] fails to continue quickly after an openSUSE upgrade [...] A "pity"? That's a good one, you now owe me a beer for complaining :) [Erwin Van de Velde and Greg KH in opensuse-factory]
