In those dialogs, the buttons you are talking about, are usually add/remove or similar buttons, relating to the widget directly to the left of the column of buttons in question. In the theme capplet, these buttons generally directly reflect the view in the list, directly next to the buttons. This is the same for the Search/Folder/Filter editor dialogs in Evolution. In some places, it doesn't necessarily make much sense. The "details" dialog in the theme capplet for example. The "Go to Theme Folder" button has no real relation at all to the list. The closest possible argument, is that the items inside of the folder, may or may not affect individiual "details" theme lists. I think it's safe to say that the button doesn't belong on the upper right in the notebook tabs in the "Theme Details" dialog.
Moving the OK/Cancel/etc... buttons to the right hand side, would only make things even more terribly confusing for our users, I think. -- dobey > P.S.

The "timeline" module in CVS might be of help. It lets you visualize the applications you spend your time in, in a neat little timeline. :) _______________________________________________ Usability mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/usability
