I understand what you say, but I think most newcomers to OpenERP could still be confused by this dropdown that is never used. > I will leave this bug as "Triaged" and ask Aline to handle it as she sees fit > (keeping in mind that this behavior would be global for all selection fields! > and would need to be adapted in both GTK and Web clients as well, so I'm not > sure it's a good idea at this stage) Fair enough, it certainly can wait for later.

Status in OpenObject Web Client: Triaged Bug description: Using Trunk, CRM, Opportunities A usability annoyance is where in the State in CRM shows dropdown box, but you cannot alter it, ie it does not actually work as a drop down. To Replicate 1) Click Sales -> Opportunities 2) Click '3rd Round Funding - 1000 Units' demo opportunity. 3) Select Edit, and you can see the State as Draft with a dropdown symbol. You actually click 'Open' to open. A developer who had not seen Open ERP before tried clicking on it today here, and thought it was bad design which I agree with ..
