https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=385315 Summary: Usability: Expert Partitioner Must Be Left with Cancel Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Beta 1 Platform: i386 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: taroth@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Documentation ..to close the partitioning dialog, even if changes were made in the fstab for a partition. E.g. after enabling quota support for a partition, a nearly unreadable message pops up (white text on a light green background, see attachment), asking the user if he really wants to execute these changes. After clicking Apply the pop-up closes, leaving the Expert Partitioner still open (so far everything OK except of the unreadable pop-up message). If the user now clicks OK to close the partitioner, a new message pops up "No unsaved changes exist". So the user has no other choice than to leave the partitioner with "Cancel". I guess every user would expect that upon "Cancel" his changes have been canceled, but in fact, his changes have been saved - when checking again, the quota support is enabled. IMO, this is very confusing and doesn't make sense at all from a usability point of view - even if the changes to the fstab are already saved when closing the pop-up, users should be able to leave the partitioner with OK (and not get a message that there have been no changes when, in fact, there have been changes, even if it was only to the fstab and not to the partitioner itself). -- 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.
