smuxi 1.2.1: I cannot save the settings #296

Closed jeremyp3 closed 1 year ago

jeremyp3 commented 1 year ago

Hello,

since smuxi 1.2.1, I can't save the settings in the preferences.

  1. I go to preferences then interfaces
  2. I change a value, for example: "Lines in scrollback at this moment, I only have a close button, I don't have an ok or apply button like before. if I click on this close button and go back to preferences, nothing is saved.

I remind you that I use smuxi with an assistance tool (orca) under debian. it may be just an accessibility issue, you never know

I have the problem with the debian package and with the installation by make && make install

thanks for the help !

@jeremyp3 nice finding! The new interface is simplified in accordance with the GNOME human interface guidelines, so the "Close" button does save your changes, or is supposed to at least.

I could reproduce this bug and had to jump through multiple layers of abstraction which left me puzzled why every config change is lost/discarded but in the end, I could locate the buggy code and fix it. If you try Smuxi from the master branch it should work for you.
