Jonas, in regards to your message as to whether the password field would be empty due to the password field becoming optional, the password field has never contained a generated password. The user has always had to enter their own password. The only change is that now the buttons will become sensitive on default.
** Description changed: The current design for setting up a hotspot assumes that it must always have a key. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Networking#hotspot> Tony Espy points out that this may be unnecessary and annoying where you, or people you trust, are the only people in range of the hotspot for usable periods of time. For example, when camping or on a road trip. This could be fixed by making the key optional. For example, adding a "Require a key to connect" checkbox, where the "Key:" field is present only when the checkbox is checked. + + UX Resolution: + + The password field is now optional. ** Changed in: ubuntu-ux Status: Triaged => Fix Committed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1431876 Title: [System Settings] Hotspot design unnecessarily makes key compulsory To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ux/+bug/1431876/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
