Hi Allan,
I haven't really tried it, so it's just an outside view, and you can
ignore my comments.
No, I welcome all feedback, otherwise it's "This is the way I wrote it,
and I know what I really meant." as the OP found out.
Don't broaden the options that much, or at the very least, make the
most common use case the easier to follow, and stow away the options
for more uncommon usecases. Also, in this case finish is not "import
the file" which is already done, but "save settings for next time".
That should be clarified to the user.
Just to expand this use, there are several pages of user parameter
input, which may be saved for next time, for that particular profile.
So, next time, a click On the 'Skip Setup' box will use the saved
parameters and go straight to the KMM Account Selection screen. Again,
assuming Skip Setup, the user lands back on the Intro page, where the
Select File button is now labeled 'Next File', plus the 'Cancel' becomes
'Finish'. I'll add a tooltip to show 'Save settings and exit'.
Without the 'Skip', on the last page there is the 'Import button', but
also 'Make QIF file', 'Back' in case a parameter change is needed,
'Finish', and 'Cancel', although the QIF button is not enabled until the
Import is done. I think it would be better if also the 'Finish' is
button is not enabled until the Import is done. I hope that helps you,
and everyone.
Regarding disable the main app, I agree it would be nice to have it
enabled if you can use it to check the import. That looks really
useful to me.
Yes, me too. I'll revert that change.
Regards,
Alvaro

Ok. You got me!
Will need to remove the "select file" button from the intermediate pages.
There weren't any intermediate pages, but it is now sorted. On completion
of each import, control returns to the into page, allowing access to the
Skip Setup button, if needed, and Next File and Finish buttons.
When stepping through the settings, the last pages buttons are a bit
confusing you are presented with a finish button and import csv button.
I think you should have one or the other not both. A couple of times I
have automatically clicked finish expecting it to import the selected
file.
The reason I have them both is that if, after doing an import, the user
might realise/get told that a parameter is incorrect. So, he can backtrack
a bit, correct the error, then import again without having to exit or
backtrack right to the intro page. Or, he/she might just have imported into
the wrong account and wants to try again. Alternatively, he may Finish,
which saves his settings, or cancel, which doesn't.
Cristian made a change that I don't like, in that now, the main KMM app is
disabled until the plugin is closed. I prefer the original, which leaves
the plugin still available, while allowing the user to check the import
result/whatever, without having to close and reopen the plugin and navigate
through again.
I also have noted clicking on the cancel button brings up a dialogue
that looks like it wants to shutdown kmymoney rather than just close the
wizard. I don't think you need a warning to close the wizard and it is
confusing. No data is lost when closing it, so pressing the cancel
button should simply close the wizard.
I did already think about clarifying the message, but as you say, it can go
without any problem.
