I think using the window close button to close something like the log view is intuitive. Closing the clone dialog this way less so. But the latter should really have [OK] and [Cancel] buttons, like a proper dialog. I find it rather confusing to have to hunt down an icon in the toolbar to confirm the clone action I just launched. And it doesn't play well with the Enter key, either. Turning the dialog-like windows into proper dialogs is a goal which is a bit further away, though. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored by: SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards: VOTE NOW!
