Tex2002ans <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |Tex2002ans+LibreOffice@gmai | |l.com --- Comment #9 from Tex2002ans <[email protected]> --- Yes, I agree with Comment 2 + Comment 7 and would say the exact OPPOSITE of Comment 4. - - - Case A: - "Do not show this again." - OFF by default. Case B: - "Do show again." - ON by default. - - - With Case A, the popup will always happen until you purposefully say: - "Yep! I read and understand... and I don't need to see this ever again." - = Turn setting ON to DISABLE this popup. So the default is: - No checkmark - = "No. Leave as is." and you have to: - Checkmark - = "YEP! I agree!" - = "Yes! Do something different from what I currently see!" - = "Yep! I DO actually want to DISABLE stuff!" - - - With Case B, you have this awkwardly worded: - "Do show again" ... and because it's ON by default, you typically don't want to accidentally turn something OFF, unless you fully understand what it means. And your brain can easily fall into one of those: - Uncheck this to (YES?) do you want to show this again? - Uncheck this to (NOT?) do you want to show this again? and my brain can easily think: - "Will unchecking do the opposite of what I don't not want?" - - - And when you're answering a question NO/YES immediately after in the main popup, things get very confusing: Case A (Default) - YES show me the Field popups. Case A (YES) - YES DO NOT show me again + YES show me the Field popups. Case B (Default) - YES show me again + YES show me the Field popups. Case B (NO) - NO show me again + YES show me the Field popups. In Case A's default, your brain can just "skip over the blank checkbox" and not have to read/think about it either. And when you do fully agree, you get an easy YES + YES. In Case B, when you fully agree, you get a NO + YES. - - - Side Note #1: I actually stumbled across this because I recently pressed the: - View > Field Names and got a newer popup! At the bottom, I noticed this awkward "Do show again" checkbox, but subconsciously didn't think much of it. (A few hours later, as I looked back at my posted screenshot/instructions... I then thought something very fishy was going on here.) - - - Side Note #2: I was SO SURPRISED/HAPPY with that new "Field Names" popup, because it reminded me of my glorious "Bug #155561 Insert/Overwrite" enhancement! This will stop LOTS of user complaints from people who accidentally toggled Fields ON, but have no idea what it actually does or where it's buried: - https://www.reddit.com/r/libreoffice/comments/1opgg12/libre_office_page_numbering/nnbq5mb/ Hopefully, just like with "Overwrite" change, that will stop 99% people from (NOT?) accidentally turning (ON?/OFF?) the Fields. :) Anyway, a huge step in the right direction. Great addition, UX Team! :) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
