GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 300717
Wrong tool button has focus when playing in window mode
Last modified: 2006-10-02 09:33:08 UTC
When Totem opens a file (either by opening Totem from the Applications menu and then selecting File->Open, or by clicking the file icon in Nautilus) the playlist button has the focus. It should be the play/pause button instead. I suggest this because the most common action when I playing e.g. a movie is pausing it, not fiddling with the playlist of the things I'd like to watch next. Also, it would make Totem's window mode behaviour more consistant with the full-screen behaviour, where playing space automatically pauses the movie. Other information:
Confirming. Sounds fair enough. However when it is started without a movie as parameter the play button is disabled anyway, so it should be o.k. in this case with its current behaviour.
Marking gnome-love as this is just a focus thing. keyboard focus on startup should be the play/pause button if a movie is scheduled to be played.
ups that is maintainer decision .. removing
Problem is that we can't fiddle with the focus *after* startup. Changing the focus after opening a file would be confusing for people who rely on the focus not changing (such as people using a11y). So we only did it when starting up Totem with a file to open, in bug 343050. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 343050 ***
