Re: [GNC-dev] Mouse usage in Gnucash

Frank, I think I have worked out how to make the keycap keysym and mousebutton tags bold without having to use the tags by creating mousebutton.xsl and keycap.xsl and having them included in general-customisation .xsl in the same way the guimenu.xsl bolded the menu items. I will go through and

Hi Frank, Sorry I am referrring to the glossary currently in the guide. Ok found the 1.79.2/html/glossary.xsl but it is beyond my current understanding of xsl processing to modify it. I am slowly getting the idea but don't want to invest the time at tis point to get up to speed. I'll add the

Hi all, my main concern was against the use of 'Fat text', where more specific docbook elements exist. In between I have no strong opinion about "Left click" vs. "click Button1". It seems "Button n" makes the things gratuitous complex. Perhaps we should include a short common snippet "Conventions

Thanks Tommy, The gnome developers guide is a useful read in any case apart from the mouse specific issues. They seem to settle on the primary and secondary descriptions in one place and then use the left-click right-click etc, particularly in the glossary

I would expect that the language of ‘primary’ and ’secondary’ click is the most versatile across platforms and preferences. It allows for OS discrepancies, accounts for touch vs. click mice, and allows for handidness considerations. Of course, people using accessibility interfaces might not

Thanks John, I agree totally. I am trying to settle on something which might be intelligible or at least easily translatable to users on other OSs and devices. Frank raised the issue with me while reviewing changes to the help manual importing section. I tried what he suggested out but my view on
