[Bug 755195] Re: gcalctool should calculate the result when the = key is pressed
Hi peterzay, This is not possible to be done, because gcalctool supports storing results as variable (e.g. a = 123+34) and then use them in another expressions (e.g. b = 123+a). And, if this request is implemented, it will be impossible to enter something like a = 123+34. Even if we implement it by checking that if = is entered after numbers, then evaluate. And if = is entered after characters, then don't evaluate. This, then it brings more problems, as it won't work when entering something like 123+ans = or with hexadecimal digits (e.g. 123abc + 1b =). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gcalctool in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/755195 Title: gcalctool should calculate the result when the = key is pressed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gcalctool/+bug/755195/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 755195] Re: gcalctool should calculate the result when the = key is pressed
What you describe in comment #7 is normally considered advanced calculator function. In basic (default) mode, a calculator should always behave symmetrically between mouse action and keyboard action. If I click on the = sign on screen and get a result, then pressing the = key should give the same result. In a basic calculator, we expect basic behaviour. In prior versions of gcalctool, this has always been this way. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gcalctool in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/755195 Title: gcalctool should calculate the result when the = key is pressed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gcalctool/+bug/755195/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

This bug is still not fixed in 12.04 beta Precise Pangolin. Since this is an LTS build, I think basic calculator functions should all work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gcalctool in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/755195 Title: gcalctool should calculate the result when the = key is pressed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gcalctool/+bug/755195/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
