Cor Nouws <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected], | |[email protected] --- Comment #3 from Cor Nouws <[email protected]> --- Hi Foss, Have you read the Help, before deciding that the current design is misleading? Apart from info that that gives: aparently the dialog is designed to give people the opportunity to use the dialog to insert more links subsequently, so as a non-modal dialog. (In reply to comment #0) > The standard is for "Apply" to apply the changes and leave the dialog open, > "OK" to apply the changes and close the dialog, "Close" to close the dialog > (should be used when changes are applied automatically), "Cancel" to revert > changes made and close the dialog, "Undo" to go a single step back in > history, "Back" to navigate to the last visited screen. Do these standards also apply for non-modal dialogs? > So, in terms of the current hyperlink dialog: > * There should be two buttons instead of the current "Apply": "Apply" and > "OK", working as described above. If one clicks Apply .. hyperlink is inserted. The one chooses OK .. the link is inserted again plus that the dialog closes? That is what I understand from what you described above... > * "Close" should be renamed to "Cancel" > * "Back" should be renamed to "Revert" ("Undo" doesn't quite fit the bill, > as the button doesn't go through each step in history); however, IMHO it'd > be good to remove this button -- it does the same thing as Cancel, only > without closing the dialog. Back sets the state of the dialog to it's default. It doesn't do anything with the already inserted links. Revert/Undo might give that impression more. Apparently the primary goal for the current design is allow inserting multiple hyperlinks without closing the dialog. Same as dialog Fields .. has an Insert and Close buton too. For me it is not yet sure that the changes that you describe, do not introduce other chances for confusion ;) David, what is your opinion? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
