Usability pros: * user has to search only once * conform with user expectation from Windows * less objects on screen makes orientation easier Time and Date would in one row and editable, if adjust time and date automatically is not selected (= manual selection). If "Adjust time and date automatically" is selected, the time and date is greyed out and can`t be edited any more, but the actual time is still displayed. "Hardware clock is set to UTC" is skipped as I do not know the use case when one should turn it off on purpose (seems it makes more sense to have it turned on by default) when timezone is selected the corresponding time (& date if possible) is shown in the time & date fields. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
