Bug ID: 477811
Summary: The panel context menu says "Exit Edit Mode" but it
actually doesn't exit edit mode, and instead toggles
the visibility for the edit mode toolbox
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: master
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Panel
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: guimarcalsi...@gmail.com
CC: niccolo.venera...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
The panel context menu says "Exit Edit Mode" while in editing mode even when
the edit mode toolbox is not visible. The context menu option actually works as
a toggle for the toolbox: if the edit mode toolbox is visible and you click on
the option, it dismisses it, but if it's not visible and you click on "Exit
Edit Mode" it brings it up. Either way, the label doesn't describe what the
entry actually does. For that reason, maybe it should be named "Toggle Edit
Mode Toolbox" if that's the original intent, or, if it's actually meant to
fully exit Edit Mode, then it should do that. Maybe we need two entries, one
for toggling the edit mode toolbox and another for fully exiting the edit mode?
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Edit Mode
2. Press ESC to hide the edit mode toolbox
3. Right-click on taskbar
4. Click on "Exit Edit Mode"
OBSERVED RESULT
The context-menu option works as a toggle for the edit mode toolbox instead of
exiting the edit mode, as the name implies.
EXPECTED RESULT
Either make it exit the edit mode as the text says or change the button to say
"Toggle Edit Mode Toolbox" if that's the intention. Another possibility is to
have two entries, one for fully exiting edit mode and another for toggling the
toolbox visibility.
