--- Begin Message ---Package: kdebase Version: 4:3.4.1-1 Severity: normal Hi, When you hold down the shift key for 8 seconds, a dialog pops up, titled "Warning - KDE Accessibility Tool", asking about "Slow keys". This dialog is poorly designed IMHO. It appears to ask two questions at the same time: 1) Do you really want to activate "Slow keys"? 2) How should KDE behave in future when you hold down shift for 8 seconds? The title is confusing. 1 is a yes/no question, and there are yes/no buttons at the bottom of the dialog. 2 is a multiple choice question, and there are options in a dropdown. So, I don't want to activate slow keys, and in future I'd like KDE to simply not pop up a dialog when I hold down shift for a while. So what do I click or press? Well, I probably want to deactivate all such accessibility enhancements, because I don't have any disabilities, so "Deactivate All AccessX Features & Gestures" looks like the right choice, but it's worded badly: When a gesture was used: Deactivate All AccessX Features & Gestures I don't want to disable stuff "when a gesture was used". I want to disable them all *right now*. And then I'm left wondering...does my yes/no answer really relate to slow keys, or is it now somehow linked to the dropdown? If I answer "no", will that save/honour my dropdown choice? What I really want is a dialog something like this: <Title "Activate 'Slow keys'?"> <move existing paragraph about gestures up to here, but make "KDE Control Centre" a link to the Accessibility panel> Do you really want to activate "Slow keys"? O yes [default] O no Next time I use an accessibility gesture: O show this dialog again [default] O activate the accessibility feature without asking O ignore the gesture <Apply> <Cancel> To configure other accessibility features, visit the accessibility panel in the KDE control centre. [link to there] Just my $0.02. Note: I'm using 3.4.1 from pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org, which is probably more recent than experimental/unstable. Also, I'm not entirely sure what package really contains the offending code. So, sorry if this is the wrong place/package to report this bug.
