Description Alan Horkan 2003-08-24 14:13:16 UTC 
It is a HIG thing.  

it is far clearer to have a button labelled
"Browse..." instead of just "...", clearer in that
you have the word to read, and you have a larger
easier to hit button.  

I dont think this problems occurs much outside of
script-fu.

Comment 2 Sven Neumann 2003-08-24 21:28:03 UTC 
Yes, these widgets suck and your patch seems like an improvement.

Don't know why it is necessary to cite the HIG here w/o any reference.
Seems fairly off-topic.
Comment 3 Alan Horkan 2003-08-24 23:13:01 UTC 
I try to find the specific reference later.   

damn, I should probably resubmit the patch with a mnemonic under the B 
in _Browse.   

as you seem to agree with patch I'll shut up while I am ahead.
Comment 4 Sven Neumann 2003-08-27 14:33:30 UTC 
The patch is completely bogus since it doesn't change the label of the
buttons in question. The code that creates these widgets is found in
libgimp/gimp[brush|gradient|pattern]menu.c.
