[Bug 60698] Re: Change Apply+Cancel+OK to Reset+Apply Changes

2006-09-16 Thread Matthew Paul Thomas
** Summary changed:

- Button labeled OK
+ Change Apply+Cancel+OK to Reset+Apply Changes

** Description changed:

- I received a bug report about a ugly icon for the ok action the other
- day (#60424). However, it struck me that the fact that the button said
- OK was the real problem. So I looked it up in the Human Interface
- Guidelines and asked mpt for advice on the matter.
+ gnome-app-install currently has Apply, Cancel, and OK buttons.
+ This is confusing for two reasons: (1) It makes the window look like a
+ dialog, when it isn't one. (2) Apply and OK in the same window often
+ make people think that OK means Close and do nothing else, so they
+ always click Apply first.
  
- This seems to be what the HIG advices 
(http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/windows-alert.html):
- Button Phrasing. Write button labels as imperative verbs, for example Save, 
Print. This allows users to select an action with less hesitation. An active 
phrase also fits best with the button's role in initiating actions, as 
contrasted with a more passive phrase. For example Find and Log In are better 
buttons than than Yes and OK.
+ One way of fixing these problems would be to change these three buttons to 
two:
+ * Reset, which returns g-a-i to representing the current installation state;
+ * Apply Changes, enabled only if there are changes to apply.
  
- With Matthew however, you never get simple answers :)
- andreasn mpt: you know the Add/Remove Applications. Do you think it should 
say Install instead of OK in that dialog?
- andreasn someone bugged me about the fact that the ok-icon was ugly, and I 
thought it was the ok action in itself that was the problem
- andreasn perhaps Install and Close (?)
- mpt andreasn, (0) insert standard protest here that g-a-i should be part of 
synaptic
- mpt (1) It's traditionally bad for a single window to have both Apply and 
OK
- andreasn :)
- andreasn mpt: so the short time solution would be?
- mpt andreasn, since this is a window rather than a dialog, I'd suggest 
removing Cancel and OK, leaving behind Revert (disabled until you touch 
anything, maybe with a better name) and Apply Changes
- andreasn mpt: thanks for the help, you rock dude!
- mpt andreasn, you're welcome :-)
- mpt andreasn, while you're reporting bugs, ;-) Advanced should end in ?
- andreasn mpt: you mean that it's a weird naming of that button?
- mpt andreasn, and perhaps Revert would be better as Reset to Current 
State (though that's a bit clunky)
- andreasn mpt: ok, so replace the current 3 buttons with 2 saying Revert 
Apply changes
- mpt andreasn, Reset for the first one, I think
- andreasn yeah, sorry, missed that
- mpt it's not powerful enough to actually do reversion
+ (This would also fix bug 60424.)
  
- 
- So, the proposal is to label the buttons like this:
- 
- [Reset] [Apply Changes]
+ On a slightly unrelated note, Advanced should be Advanced….

[Bug 60424] Re: GTK default icons used in several places

2006-09-17 Thread Matthew Paul Thomas
Hang on, the premise is wrong here. The HIGs can be a bit confusing in
some places, but nowhere do they say that OK and Cancel should be
abolished! It's true that OK should be replaced by more informative
text, if possible, in dialogs and in confirmation alerts. But OK
*must* be the text of the main button in an error alert or an
information alert, Cancel *should* be the text of the second button in
a dialog or a confirmation alert, and Cancel *should* be the text of
the button in a progress window whenever the operation can be properly
cancelled.

Personally I think none of these buttons should ever have icons, but as
long as they have any icon, the icon should look nice. I'm all in favor
of using ugliness during development to encourage developers to follow a
policy -- but first, make sure the policy actually exists. :-)

[Bug 53113] After installing Gramps, double-clicking .grdb file gives Couldn't display error

Public bug reported:

Gramps 2.0.11, Ubuntu 6.06

1. Install Gramps, and create a Gramps database.
2. Close Gramps.
3. Double-click on the database file.

What should happen: It opens.

There seems to be no application associated with the filetype, which is
odd since the file has the correct Gramps icon.

[Bug 50517] Display garbled (no repaint when scrolling, moving windows etc)

2006-06-20 Thread Matthew Paul Thomas
Public bug reported:

Sometime in the past week, in my Dapper installation (with all updates 
applied), the display has stopped working properly, even after restarting. 
Symptoms:
* Areas that are supposed to be moved from one part of the screen to another 
are not: dragging a window causes the window to mostly disappear, and scrolling 
anything (whether a Web page, or a GTK+ listbox) draws only the newly-revealed 
area without scrolling the rest.
* The caret is invisible in Gecko/XUL text fields, but visible in GTK+ ones.
* Panel applets, and Internet Explorer under Wine, both draw their buttons and 
other chrome without clearing the background underneath, for an interesting 
layered effect.

These problems combine to make development near-impossible; I can't see
what I'm writing.

I've landed a fix for the bug in Launchpad (bug 39995), so it should be
fixed on launchpad.net sometime in the next week or so. Obviously that
won't fix the bug in Xorg, it will just become harder to reproduce. So
if you want to retain a test case, I suggest that one of you use wget or
similar to download a complete copy of the crashy Launchpad page, verify
that the bug happens with your downloaded copy, and attach it to this
bug report, before launchpad.net is next updated.

:01:05.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG (rev 05)

I configured a wireless connection with a static IP address. Other
machines were connected to the same wireless router (with different IP
addresses, obviously) and worked fine. But on this machine, any kind of
IP connection to or from the machine suffered from excessive packet
loss, often 100%. When I ran iwconfig, I noticed that Tx excessive
retries was very high (at least 200). After a hard reboot, the problem
went away.

[Bug 66047] Re: Shortcuts for non-keyboard characters in Gnome, as well as compose-key combinations, are undocumented

2006-10-15 Thread Matthew Paul Thomas
I think mentioned in the documentation for the character pallette
should be mentioned in the character palette. I want to be able to
choose a character and be shown how to type it. That would be both
quicker and more widely seen than any help page or tutorial.

** Description changed:

- I discovered quite by chance (from http://en.wikipedia.org/ß) that I
- could generate an ß in Gnome 2.14 earlier (changes to something else
- from 2.15 apparently). However I can find nothing in the gnome
- documentation about this, or about all the other characters I assume I
- could generate if I only knew how.

  This feature should not only be documented in the help system, it should

  addition, be mentioned in the documentation for the character pallette
  and/or for the keyboard preferences.
  
  The same should apply to the equally obscure xorg compose key. I myself
  actually did find out a short while ago what the compose key did, but I
  didn't know, until reading that wikipedia article, that compose-ss would
  give me an ß. What I have managed to learn about compose key
  combinations has been mainly through guesswork. There are still many

  need to use guesswork to unearth important features of your desktop

[Bug 68983] Upgrade to Edgy fails (Cannot remove /usr/X11R6/bin directory) if Opera is installed

2006-10-28 Thread Matthew Paul Thomas
Public bug reported:

While upgrading from Ubuntu 6.04.1 to Ubuntu 6.10, with Opera installed
from the dapper-commercial repository, I received an error message:
This upgrade requires that the /usr/X11R6/bin directory be removed and
replaced with a symlink. An attempt was made to do so, but it failed,
most likely because the directory is not yet empty. You must move the
files that are currently in the directory out of the way so that the
installation can complete. If you like, you may move them back after the
symlink is in place.

This is a very well-written error message, but expecting people to
follow these instructions themselves is still far beyond the realm of
most people who use computers. One possible solution is for the
installation process to create the new directory, then move the contents
of /usr/X11R6/bin/ to that new directory, *then* replace /usr/X11R6/bin
with a symlink.

Furthermore, the instructions don't actually work. Even after moving the
opera/ subdirectory out of the way, the dist-upgrade still fails, with a
message like trying to overwrite /user/X11R6/bin, which is also used by
package opera. And if I use Synaptic to try uninstalling Opera first,
it wants me to uninstall half the world at the same time (including gdm,
gksu, update-notifier, and xserver-xorg).

  3. Observe very few PCs with Ubuntu and free software pre-installed.
What should happen:
  1. A majority of the PCs for sale should include only free software like

such an important missing feature without critical problems. (I
understand that other things may hold it up, such as Edubuntu not having
room to include Mono.) Furthermore, some of these suggestions are
problems with gnome-screensaver already, not with the rewrite in
particular.

* xFX Screensaver Settings should be Screensaver. (xFX is, alas,
inappropriate branding. Settings is probably redundant, because there
is no other Screensaver window.)

* When using control A can (or should) disable control B, A should be
above B, to prevent people from wasting time twiddling things that end
up inapplicable. Here, Activate the screensaver when the computer is
idle determines whether *any* of the other controls are relevant, so it
should go at the top, not near the bottom.

* Regard the computer as idle after: violates Ockham's UI Razor in
that it needlessly introduces a new entity: something mysterious that
does regarding of idle state. This can be avoided by merging with the
Activate the screensaver checkbox:

[/] When the computer has been idle for: [10 minutes  :^]

The menu would be disabled when the checkbox was unchecked. (Using a
menu like this, instead of a slider, would require offering a selection
of likely values.)

* The rewrite says 10 without saying what the units are. This can be
fixed by implementing the previous suggestion (or by adding units to the
live slider value).

* I suggest pulling Blank screen and Random out of the list of
screensavers. Instead have a separate Show: menu, immediately under
the menu I suggested above, with three options: Blank screen, One
screensaver, and Randomly-chosen screensaver. When Blank screen is
chosen, the list of screensavers (and the Properties button) is
disabled; when One screensaver is chosen, the list behaves as normal;
and when Random screensaver is chosen, each screensaver in the list
begins with a checkbox for determining whether it is part of the random
selection.

* Properties should be Options..., and Name Of Screensaver Here
Properties should be Name Of Screensaver Here Options. (Everywhere
except Microsoft and Windows software, properties are things that
might or might not be changeable, making it a needlessly vague term when
referring solely to things that *are* changeable.)

* In the options window, the name of the screensaver should be displayed
only once (in the title bar), not twice. (This also means removing the
separator. Actually, both separators should go.)

* In the options window, the various options should have 6 pixels
between them, both horizontally and vertically.

* When an option is represented by a slider, its label should be
followed by a colon. For example, Display Speed should be Display
Speed:. (Actually, it should be Display speed: in sentence case, but
if you're auto-generating the options GUI there's probably little you
can do about that.)

* It's not clear what the Description button does.

* Fullscreen is not obvious -- people may wonder, why *wouldn't* they
want their screensaver to be full-screen? This button probably should
say Test instead.

* Power Management would be better as Power Settings (Hardly
anyone manages power, except people who work at power companies.)

Thank you for working on this!

4. A window appears: There is now a combined status menu for instant messaging 
status, switching user accounts, and exiting Ubuntu. This menu will replace the 
current Quit button. If you click on the 'Update' button below your Quit button 
will be replaced with the new status menu.
5. An error alert appears: No logout button found - The logout button can 
not be found or it is not in the standard location. Please update the panel

Ken, that looks much better, nicely done. Now if you increase the radius

[Bug 160311] Re: Window Resize Difficult (Window Border Thickness)

2008-10-31 Thread Matthew Paul Thomas
It is not true that Mac OS lets you change window border thickness:
since 2001 its windows have had no resize border at all. Instead,
resizable windows always have a resize grippy in the lower right corner.

Apple does provide an example, however, of another of the solutions
proposed in previous comments: an invisible drag area. In iTunes 7.0 the
border between the source list and the rest of the window was a 1-pixel-
wide draggable splitter. In iTunes 7.3 an invisible 6-pixel-wide
draggable area was added around the 1-pixel border.
http://thinkmac.co.uk/blog/2007/07/itunes-73-ushers-in-welcome-ui-
changes.html But apparently that still wasn't enough, and in 7.4 a
grippy at the bottom was added as well.
http://inessential.com/?comments=1postid=3100

I have no insight on whether an invisible draggable area would be both
sufficient and error-free enough to work well for resizing windows.
User-test it and see. :-) Meanwhile, report bugs that GTK should provide
a corner resize grippy that doesn't require a status bar, and that more
apps should use corner resize grippies.

[Bug 287574] [NEW] epiphany-webkit description is repetitive and contradicts itself

2008-10-22 Thread Matthew Paul Thomas
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: epiphany-browser

Ubuntu Intrepid, all updates installed

1. Open Add/Remove Applications.
2. In the Internet category, select Epiphany Browser (Webkit).

What you see:

Epiphany is a simple yet powerful GNOME web browser targeted at non-technical 
users. Its principles are simplicity and standards compliance. Simplicity is 
achieved by a well designed user interface and reliance on external 
applications for performing external tasks (such as reading email). Simplicity 
should not mean less powerful. Standards compliance is achieved on the HTML 
side by using the Gecko rendering engine, as developed for the Mozilla and 
Firefox browsers; and on the user interface side by closely following the GNOME 
Human Interface Guidelines (HIG) and by close integration with the GNOME 
desktop.

This version uses the Webkit backend to render web pages.


There are several problems with this description.
1. That a program is a GNOME program doesn't mean anything unless you're 
familiar with the Gnome project, which most Ubuntu users are not.
2. Non-technical users is an ironically-technical way of limiting the 
program's target audience, and not likely to help anyone choose it.
3. The word simple or simplicity is used four times, which is three times 
too many for such a short description.
4. That Epiphany relies on external applications for reading e-mail is not 
worth mentioning: almost all other modern Web browsers do this too (with the 
exceptions of Opera, AOL, and MSN Explorer).
5. Simplicity should not mean less powerful is a grammatical truism: a noun 
can't mean an adjective phrase.
6. Standards compliance is about much more than just HTML.
7. That it uses Gecko is false. It uses WebKit.
8. The Gnome Human Interface Guidelines are not standards, and are of 
practically no interest to users.
9. Close integration with the GNOME desktop doesn't mean anything unless 
you're familiar with the Gnome project, which most Ubuntu users are not.
10. That it uses Webkit is false. It uses WebKit.
11. Backend is not a word unless you're a programmer.

I suggest:

Epiphany is a simple but powerful Web browser.

This version uses the WebKit rendering engine.

If there are any particular features worth promoting, they can be mentioned in 
the first paragraph.

[Bug 287599] [NEW] Everything is unexplainedly slower from live CD than from hard disk

2008-10-22 Thread Matthew Paul Thomas
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: usplash

Ubuntu Intrepid daily live, 20081022

From the startup process onward, everything you do with an Ubuntu live
CD is much slower than the same thing in Ubuntu installed on a hard
disk.

People who have not used Ubuntu before may not realize that the slowness
is because of the CD, and may think Ubuntu is just very slow in general
and therefore not worth using.

One way of addressing this would be to add an explanatory sentence to
the startup screen whenever Ubuntu is started from a CD. (Something
like, Ubuntu is slower when running from a CD.)

Another way would be to add an extra animation (perhaps a picture of a
slowly spinning CD) to the startup screen when starting up from an
optical disc.

[Bug 287605] [NEW] Choosing time zone in installer doesn't update time zone in live session

2008-10-22 Thread Matthew Paul Thomas
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 60514 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/60514

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ubiquity

1. Start up from an Ubuntu CD.
2. Start the installer, and advance to the Where are you? step.
3. Choose a time zone that has a different time from the one currently shown in 
the panel.
4. Choose Forward.

What happens: The time in the panel stays as it is.
What should happen: The time in the panel updates to reflect the time zone you 
have selected in the installer.

There's no likely reason that you would want one time zone in your
installation of Ubuntu but another in the live CD session. And updating
the time in the panel makes it a bit more likely, during the rest of the
installation, that you will realize any mistake you made when choosing a
time zone.

[Bug 268513] Re: Guided isn't

I don't think it would make sense even if refinement steps were added.
It's implicit that the entire installation process is guided, so calling
it out in specific places is redundant.

1. On a computer that already has multiple partitions on the hard disk, start

2. Start the installer, and advance to the Prepare disk space step.

What happens: The partition diagrams are about twice as wide as the available

What should happen: The partition diagrams should always fit exactly into the

At the end of the installer, the progress window is titled Installing
system, and then says Installing system in large print.

Window titles should use Title Case, e.g. Installing System or
Installing Ubuntu, not Installing system.

The title of a window should not be repeated in a heading.

[Bug 287639] [NEW] In default Intrepid setup, Ubuntu and Firefox icons touch panel edge

2008-10-22 Thread Matthew Paul Thomas
Public bug reported:

Ubuntu Intrepid daily live CD, 20081022

1. Start Ubuntu from the live CD.

In the default setup, with the default theme and panel settings, the
Ubuntu and Firefox icons touch the edges of the panel. This looks ugly.

I'm sorry I don't know whether this is a bug in gnome-panel, the Ubuntu
theme, or the individual icons.
