Exceptional for me, but no further comments. > But because the Help button is besides the Accept button
In the past I have committed some patches to move the Help button out of the way of OK/Cancel. Can you point me to a specific dialog that has the Help button besides OK? Feel free to attach a screenshot.

Example dialog for this bug.
Who changed this bug status to RESOLVED-INVALID the next day i added it? Did my proposal get voted and i didn't noticed it? Is it this the way the LibreOffice community responds to enhancement proposals? There’s no need of being silly. This was marked INVALID because your initial proposal was just killing off the Help buttons, which we won’t do. Also, just look at this bug report’s title, I quote, “What's the point of Help button in dialogs?”. Oh well. I’m fixing that now. Re. comment 3: Thank you for the screenshot. That dialog is really tiny (in fact, the Help-OK-Cancel strip is bigger). I think it’s reasonable to move the buttons to the right and arrange them vertically in this case; it’s nonstandard, but unless the dialog grows more options, I guess it’ll be helpful to do it. Great argument: "It's silly. We won't do". Have you asked other users or you just decided it by yourself? It's nice to see Libreoffice is developed under the paradigms of consensus and cooperation. (In reply to dabisu from comment #7) > Great argument: "It's silly. We won't do". That is not what I said. |
