Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: mattman_iflaf (mattman_iflaf) Assigned to: Richard Laager (rlaager) Summary: Dialogs with "Cancel" button not closing with ESC key Initial Comment: Pretty standard for all gtk based apps, that dialogs that have "Cancel" buttons should close when the ESC key is pressed. This is not the case in gaim 2.0 for at least two dialogs: View User Log Dialog Modify Account Dialog There my be others I just haven't seen them. ESC does work perfectly well on some of the dialogs but should really work on all, This would be considered an accessibility issue. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Eduardo Perez Ureta (eperez) Date: 2007-02-08 23:39 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=60347 Originator: NO Here is a lengthy discussion about the issue: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101293 Most probably that dialogs are not closed as other dialogs in gaim because they are not gtk+ dialogs. But, anyway this is an inconsistency and it should be fixed by making those dialogs closed by pressing the ESC key. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Andy Feldman (nereusren) Date: 2006-05-14 03:16 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=703894 I was also surprised by this inconsistent behavior in gaim. If a window has a "cancel" button, Escape should probably be the same as pressing it. For example, in the "add new buddy pounce" dialog it doesn't work, but in "send file" it does. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Richard Laager (rlaager) Date: 2006-04-06 14:43 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=156487 Is this specified in the HIG anywhere? If this should be done "for all gtk based apps", then GTK+ should be doing it. That said, I happen to like using Escape to close windows, so I might look into this at some point. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100235&aid=1465710&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
