** Description changed: - Steps to reproduce: - 1. Choose any of the themes shipped with Ubuntu, including the default. - 2. Mouse down on a slider or a scrollbar thumb. + 1. Switch to the Human theme if not already using it. (The problem also occurs with other themes, but I'm most concerned about the default theme.) + 2. Mouse down on a button (e.g. "Help" in Power Management Preferences). + - Observe that it goes darker to show that you're clicking it. + 3. Mouse down on a checkbox (e.g. "Use sound to notify" in Power Management Preferences). + - Observe that it goes darker to show that you're clicking it. + 4. Mouse down on a radio button (e.g. "Always display an icon" in Power Management Preferences). + - Observe that it goes darker to show that you're clicking it. + 5. Mouse down on a slider (e.g. "Set display brightness to:" in Power Management Preferences), or on a scrollbar thumb. + - Observe that ... nothing happens. - What should happen: - * The control changes color to confirm that you're dragging it (as opposed to, - say, having clicked on the pixel immediately above it by mistake). + There is no apparent reason for this inconsistency. I'm aware that other + OSes also make this mistake (for example Windows 95/98/2000 got it wrong + but Windows XP got it right, and Mac OS 8/9 got it right but Mac OS X + gets it wrong). But it's more important to be internally consistent than + consistent with other OSes. And it would be quite easy to fix: make the + thumb or slider a bit darker while it is being clicked. - What actually happens: - * Nothing. + This bug has nothing to do with mouseover effects, just mousedown + feedback.
