A quick look around says that yes, we have quite a lot of them. The most prominent examples are the About dialogues, and the bits underneath that (like the License description), but also things in KSysGuard uses it, as well as plenty of our applications. This is a non-exhaustive (and also somewhat polluted, as it's not entirely straightforward to create a good search for that that only shows those that're creating such a thing, but it's a start) list of instances of the explicit mention of the standard Close button in our codebase's c++ bits (be ware long load times): https://lxr.kde.org/search?_filestring=&_string=QDialogButtonBox%5C%3A%5C%3AClose&_casesensitive=1 As i said above, i'm not in principle against getting rid of it, and even agree that it would perhaps not be a silly idea to do so (based in part on the bits you mention), but this is not a decision that can be made in a random KNewStuff bug, this must be considered by at least the VDG's HIG people... In other words: we'll need to move this to a more reasonable product (not sure which), so a decision can be made on a HIG level, at which point i'd be more than happy to get rid of it in any software i'm involved with. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
