Good to not highlight OK button in Edit Source Text dialog #49

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
I love the way it is easier to change the source text now -- it helps a 
lot. I have a suggestion for an improvement in the dialog:

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Be adapting, and click the Source word and Edit->Edit Source Text
2. Type in the correction and notice the highlighted OK button to accept 
the change and close the dialog.
3. Hit the Enter key to operate the highlighted button

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expected the dialog to accept the change and close. Instead it put a 
newline in the middle of the replacement where I had typed an extra letter 
to fix the source word

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Wx 4.1.4 Unicode on Windows XP, SP probably 2.

Please provide any additional information below.
As you know, I work in training inexperienced computer users, and in 
groups where one person has a remote keyboard on his lap and sits back 
from the screen so others can also see it, so any time we can use the 
keyboard instead of having to reach for the mouse and do fine-motor 
actions to click on a button is an advantage.

I think that at least the OK button in this dialog should not be 
highlighted, but I would be happier if the OK key had a hotkey, such as 
_O_K as in Paratext 7.

Thanks again for this great program,
   Jim

Bruce and I have fixed the behavior of the Edit Source Text dialog so that 
pressing
the Enter key closes the dialog, saving any changes that were made to the 
source text
(without entering a newline character into the edit box). Also ALT+O is a hot 
key
which also closes the dialog - the same as if the Enter key were pressed. This 
fix
will be in the next update.
