Re: Evolution - string freeze break for gnome-3-4 branch

2012-08-01 Thread Johannes Schmid
Hi Milan!

 Matthew decided to outsource the usability to GtkFileChooser, but it's
 not ready yet for our needs (to open in previously used folder), thus I
 want to return back functionality users are used to in Evolution. It's
 very rare to attach the same file multiple times, you usually want to
 add more files from the same folder. Currently, you are presented with
 Recently used items, which is useless, then you need mouse to get to
 your album folder, which can be anywhere. I hope you can imagine the
 pain for users.
 
 As an example, I cannot imagine loosing option for Always ask me where
 to save files from FireFox, neither if it would always open in other
 than previously used folder. It would be a deal breaker for me.

OK, I see your point and these strings are most likely still in most
translations. So 1 of 2 with i18n-head on but I would really like to
have usuability in GtkFileChooser fixed because it is personally
annoying me to always default to recent use files (= release-team...).

Regards,
Johannes

Hi,
quite few users commented problems with GtkFileChooser dialog's
Recently used feature in that bug report, nothing happened so far.

 so reverting commits in Evolution would not be required?

Note, it's a revert of (useful) code _removal_ from Evolution.

 What was/is blocking?

Any other opinions from i18n / r-t?  (user docs are not affected.)

Evolution - string freeze break for gnome-3-4 branch

2012-07-26 Thread Milan Crha
Hello,
after some discussion [1] about removed functionality of remembered last
used folder in Evolution, I would like to revert the removal [2],
because gtk's current implementation of Recently used is broken [3]
(also can be read as not sufficient for Evolution needs), though the
change to be reverted touches translated strings too. These are GConf
schema keys, thus maybe not a big deal anyway?

Please let me know if I can fix usability of Evolution.

If you are wondering, evolution team plans to do a 3.4.4 release in time
of 3.5.90 development release.
Thanks and bye,
Milan

Could you list the strings here and tell us about how many strings we
talk?

Hi,
sure. It's only about two options, which used to be in evolution for
ages. The first is from mail/evolution-mail.schemas.in:

/apps/evolution/mail/composer/current_folder
shortComposer load/attach directory/short
longDirectory for loading/attaching files to composer./long

and the second from shell/apps_evolution_shell.schemas.in:

/apps/evolution/shell/file_chooser_folder
shortInitial file chooser folder/short
longInitial folder for GtkFileChooser dialogs./long

Otherwise there is no string (re)addition, nor change.
Bye,
Milan
