Bug ID: 516537
Summary: The way to send a message or enter a new line
unexpectedly reverses between normal and rich text
controls mode
Classification: Applications
Product: NeoChat
Version First git master
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Keywords: regression, usability
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: General
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Type some text in the chat text bar
2. Press shift-return to enter a new line
3. type some more stuff
4. Open the rich text controls bar
5. Press shift-return
OBSERVED RESULT
The in-progress message is immediately sent
EXPECTED RESULT
A newline is entered
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The problem here is that there's no indication that this basic part of the UI
reverses while the rich text controls are visible. The only way you can learn
about this conditional behavior change is by making an embarrassing mistake,
i.e. sending an in-progress message by accident.
If this behavior is to be kept, it needs to be surfaced visibly in the UI
somehow. Even just a dumb little visible label somewhere saying "Press
Shift+Enter to add a new line" that changes to "Press Enter to add a new line"
would help a lot.
