Description Casual J. Programmer 2008-03-10 08:48:19 UTC

When exporting a common server certificate with yast2 ca_mgm the button for OK is located in the left bottom corner, while the button for abort is in the bottom right corner. As far as I experience it, yast2 usually has it the other way round. i.e. abort left, OK, next, apply etc. on the right.

yast2-ca-management-2.16.6-11 still has it :-(

Not sure if you are right.

This looks like the button order is ok. Let's ask our Usibility Team.

Comment 4 J. Daniel Schmidt 2008-09-03 15:16:05 UTC

This is indeed the default YaST button layout.
But as there were requests to support as well the reverse button order used in Gnome, YaST now introduced a new Widget for that: the buttonbox.
It will take care of sortig the buttons in the correct order according to the windowmanager used.

For details see:
http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/Development/Misc/Button_Order

As a single use of this new buttonbox will make YaST inconsistent with itself we have to wait for a general and complete switch (_and_ full test) to the new widget. I doubt that this is possible for Code11, but most likely after that.


Btw. Concerning your screenshot: The "Ok" button in the wizard in the right bottom corner is actually a "Finish" button, the module creator just changed its label text.
IMO this is the only bug I can find in this report.


Martin, any further comments?

 modules/Popup.ycp is already using the ButtonBox which is the base class for pretty much every popup dialog. Either use Popup.ycp or use the ButtonBox.
 Either way, put OK and Abort next to each other.

Comment 6 Martin Schmidkunz 2008-09-04 11:00:31 UTC

As Jens already mentioned, YaST will take care of sorting the buttons in the correct order according to the windowmanager used.

However I see the button order in the pop up and in the overview is wrong (according to the YaST style guide):

* The buttons in the overview dialog should be OK/Cancel because it is an overview of the certificate details and not a wizard 
(http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/Style_Guide#Single_Configuration.2FOverview.2FEdit_Dialog)

* The buttons in the pop up should be labeled OK/Cancel and should be aligned in the center (for KDE) or down on the right (for GNOME). I think, susing popup.ycp should handle the button alignment correctly.

Comment 7 J. Daniel Schmidt 2008-12-04 17:49:07 UTC

There are a lot of buttons in this module. We will change to the new ButtonBox-magic after CODE11 (after 11.1 is released).

Comment 8 Casual J. Programmer 2009-01-14 18:29:16 UTC

To me it looks like it's still the wrong way round(11.1 final)

Comment 9 Larry Finger 2011-04-04 05:31:08 UTC

Closed wit WONTFIX

Comment 10 Casual J. Programmer 2011-04-04 06:05:25 UTC

Is this the new openSUSE way to "fix" bugs ? 

Leaving them untouched for several years, then close as WONTFIX or NORESPONSE ?

Why should anybody bother to submit bug reports, if nothing becomes of them anyway ?

I'm sure you can do better.

No it is not. Seems to be aside-effect of the OpenBugsDay:
  http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Open-Bugs-Day
All old bugs were closed ignoring the content in them.

This bug was kept open as reminder to switch all YaST modules to use the ButtonBox widget. The ButtonBox automagically sorts the buttons in an order that is consistent with the current desktop environment. This is an enhancement and valid for all YaST modules.

Comment 12 J. Daniel Schmidt 2011-04-04 14:07:33 UTC

Closing as duplicate of a bug that tracks the switch to a consistent use of the ButtonBox in all YaST modules.
