[Bug 1377145] Re: inconsistent use of colour for restart menu when changing language
We have at least six dialogs where tapping a button restarts the phone. In the dialog that appears when you: (A) hold down the power button, Power Off is red, Restart is green, Cancel is black (!) (B) install a system update, Restart Install is grey, Cancel is grey (C) insert a new SIM card, Reboot (wording to be fixed) is green, and there are no other buttons (D) insert an SD card that can't be read until you restart, ??? (haven't seen this one) (E) change display language, Restart Now is grey, Cancel is grey (F) choose Erase Reset Everything, Erase Reset Everything is grey, Cancel is grey. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1377145 Title: inconsistent use of colour for restart menu when changing language To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ux/+bug/1377145/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1377145] Re: inconsistent use of colour for restart menu when changing language
I understand that it may be useful for the buttons to be different colors, but I don't think the power-button dialog is actually correct. The pattern is for red to cancel or delete, and green positive actions such as taking a call, OK, New etc. The amount of mental effort you'd need to put into an analysis where Restart is a positive action, while Power Off is akin to cancelling or deleting, while Cancel is neither, far outweighs the amount of time it would save. That doesn't necessarily mean the design pattern is correct. Maybe we need to work on that first. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1377145 Title: inconsistent use of colour for restart menu when changing language To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-system-settings/+bug/1377145/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1377145] Re: inconsistent use of colour for restart menu when changing language
'Cancel' 'Confirm' on the 'Display Language' page: I think the choice of bottom colours here is like the 'Custom Settings' in the 'Background settings' where you can 'Add image' or 'Remove Image' - similar pattern is used there where the 'Remove image' is a lighter inactive grey button - but these don't hold the same context as 'Cancel' or 'Confirm' in the display language. I think there needs to be more of a gauge in inactive and active state buttons. In this case though I think 'Cancel' - should be red and 'Confirm' in a lighter green, until it becomes active, which then turns to solid green as a positive action. As 'Confirm' 'Cancel' are actions, I think throughout the UI we should stick to a consistency in the way we portray importance in the colours we use. As otherwise, in this case there's no definition in how important the actions are. Same applies to 'Restart now' and 'Cancel' in the restart screen, should be consistent in colour. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1377145 Title: inconsistent use of colour for restart menu when changing language To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ux/+bug/1377145/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1377145] Re: inconsistent use of colour for restart menu when changing language
According to our values, green is used for positive actions and confirmations, whereas red is used for negative and irreversible actions. https://docs.google.com/a/canonical.com/document/d/1nFm8xiYhKXXuEO_IvMXoD0lASbYzYXva1BWMVanU3iw/edit#heading=h.fnizdnqm9lbf In this case, I would use Green for restart and Neutral for Cancel. ** Changed in: ubuntu-ux Assignee: Stephanie (wilson-steph1989) = Giorgio Venturi (giorgio-venturi) ** Changed in: ubuntu-ux Importance: Undecided = Medium ** Changed in: ubuntu-ux Importance: Medium = Low -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1377145 Title: inconsistent use of colour for restart menu when changing language To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ux/+bug/1377145/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks, James. Could you file a bug for the localization issue and remove that part from this report?

@Jonas - I've just realised what is happening when you change language: the restart message (The phone needs to restart for changes to take effect:) gets displayed in the language you phone is *about* to be changed into (as a result of the reboot). Since I was switching from French to English the message appeared in English. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1377145 Title: inconsistent use of colour for restart menu when changing language To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-system-settings/+bug/1377145/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
