When you add repo to SR and you at the last step when data are fetched from the repo -- all of the sudden one dialog appears with progress bar, it disappears, another one appears only to disappear in a second, and so on. Please, do not use progress dialogs at all! Use panes (just for the record they are finally used in several places, good). The reasons is quite simply: a) it is annoying for the user to see all those dialogs flying around the screen, it is system management, not a game b) it makes task(window) switching very hard because of appearing/disappearing windows (dialogs) c) it makes navigation (mouse) harder because usually dialog is placed right under mouse It is completely unnecessary and SR window with progress-panes, instead dialogs solves this by design. -- 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.
