I wonder what they were smoking when they came up with those...
I wonder what I have been smoking, because I can't find a reference to the Yes/No or No/Yes buttons. 3 x Yes and 2 x No...
Where on the page is it?
Figure 3.12 - This shows Alternate, Cancel, Affirmative. It equates roughly to Cancel, No, Yes.
Errm, that page says "Write button labels as imperative verbs, for example Save, Print". So unless you're the kind of person that verbs their interjections, I think that means any dialog with buttons labelled 'yes' or 'no' was NOT written to those guidelines. And on the original point, the text would have to be worded very strangely to allow the rightmost ('affirmative') button to be labelled 'No'. Do we actually have a real example? BTW, it also says "Make both the primary and secondary text selectable". I think that's really good. I really hate dialogs that won't let you select the text.
