wow - this is cool :-) I've hated that dialog with a passion for its
highly confusing choice, and the text above it which I've had to read
again and again each time I see it ;-) [ and seen my wife struggle over
too ]. Your patch makes it much better.
I suspect this also ties into button ordering: I expect the sensible
choice to be the bottom right button under gnome etc.
Another hint we have from the user over what they want to do is
probably the auto-selected filter from the 'Save As' dialog - ie. if
someone typed:
"foo.doc"
in there, to select the .doc type - almost inevitably they know what
they are doing, and shouldn't be bothered ;-) [ but perhaps the "don't
bother me again" check-box copes with them ].
Anyhow - fantastic to have you polishing the UI like this, most
encouraging. FWIW - it is good practise to CC the:
[email protected] list on this sort of thing,
so the UI guys can easily track and give advice on this sort of thing
without needing to scan the list.
Thanks again,
Michael.
