Description Olaf van der Spek 2006-02-20 01:19:04 UTC
The Theme Preferences dialog can't be closed with the Escape key. I think Escape
is frequently used to close dialogs, so it'd be nice if this dialog could be
closed too.

Other information:
Comment 1 Luca Cavalli 2006-02-20 22:34:33 UTC
ESC key is often used as quick shortcut for "Cancel" button. Since theme-manager dialog hasn't any "Cancel" button, ESC key should not close it.
Comment 2 Olaf van der Spek 2006-02-20 23:09:20 UTC
Why would Escape be reserved for Cancel?
Comment 3 Luca Cavalli 2006-02-20 23:31:15 UTC
To tell the true I was wrong, sorry. Pressing ESC key in a dialog emits a GTK_RESPONSE_DELETE_EVENT event, but only if a button with GTK_RESPONSE_CANCEL response code is present. You can find more informations here [1] and here [2], at the end of gtk_dialog_class_init.
