Consistent UI for saving Contacts like in Events/Tasks/Memos
Last modified: 2012-04-27 01:56:38 UTC
When creating a new contact, mail, memo, task, or calendar item, the way of saving that new item should be consistent throughout. However in Evo 3.2.2, Contacts are currently the odd one out, and are inconsistent with the rest of Evo's interface, in at least 3 different ways: * Pressing Enter after entering a contact's full name will save the contact. No other component does this. In any other component, pressing Enter after finishing typing in a field will not save, and instead does nothing. * To save in mail/memos/tasks/calendar, you must press ctrl-s, or click the "save" button. But in Contacts, ctrl-s is completely ignored. * In mail/memos/tasks/calendar, there is a "Save" button. In Contacts, the equivalent is labelled just as "OK". Requesting that Enter behaves consistently, that ctrl-s always works, and that the word "Save" be used consistently.
Created attachment 212877 [details] [review] evo patch for evolution; Why not. I thought it'll not be that trivial, but it turned out it is. You even can apply this patch to the same files in /usr/share/evolution/X.Y/ui and your evolution will do it too.
Created commit 93e5656 in evo master (3.5.1+)
Most appreciated - thank you!
