GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 353085
update 'Preferred Applications' section
Last modified: 2007-09-07 14:33:32 UTC
Section 8.14, Preferred Applications is out of date with the current version of the preference tool. In particular: - kill section 'Text Editor' - update description of which tab things are in Note: the pref tool hasn't changed between 2.14 and 2.16.
It appears that this preferences tool will be changed for 2.18, so fixing this should wait until those changes have gone through. Setting this bug as a dependency of the UI updates.
Hints for gnome-love contributors wanting to work on this bug: - You only need explain how to select a preferred application once, rather than repeat explaining the interface each time - See if you can get a list of which possible apps are shown for each category, ie which are in stock GNOME. However, it's worth investigating to see if our major distros provide these too, or more. If the lists will be very different for distros, it's perhaps not worth putting these into the docs (annoyingly).
Created attachment 88176 [details] [review] Remove "Text Editor" section. Updated information about tabs. If I've done everything correctly, this should resolve this bug.
Minor correction: "The email client selected here will be opened when you click on a email address link in a document" should be "The email client selected here will be opened when you click on an email address link in a document" Other than that, the patch looks good to my untrained eyes. Joachim?
Created attachment 88177 [details] [review] fixed grammatical error in last patch. please disregard last upload. This fixes a grammatical error.
<application>System -> Preferences -> Preferred Applications</application> should be <menuchoice><guimenu>System</guimenu><guisubmenu>Preferences</guisubmenu><guimenuitem>Preferred Applications</guimenuitem></menuchoice> and under the <application>Internet</application> tab should be under the <guilabel>Internet</guilabel> tab (2 times) Use the <application>Terminal Emulator</application> section under the <application>System</application> tab should be Use the <guilabel>Terminal Emulator</guilabel> section under the <guilabel>System</guilabel> tab
