Package:           kdevelop
Version:           2.1.2 (using KDE 3.0.2 )
Severity:          wishlist
Installed from:    Mandrake Linux Cooker i586 - Cooker
Compiler:          gcc version 3.1.1 (Mandrake Linux 8.3 3.1.1-0.8mdk)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.4.18-19mdk
OS/Compiler notes: 

hi

When clicking on a .ui file you are asked the question :

"Do you want to load it as ASCII file?"

(yes or no)

This is a bad choice of question for several reasons :

1. It is not obvious that clicking "no" will open QT Designer.

2. Yes/no is a bad choice as the question could equally as easily be "Do you want to open in QT Designer?". It is better to have buttons stating how to open e.g. "ASCII" and "QT Designer"

3. There is no possibiltity of cancelling the operation.

May I suggest the following question instead.

"Do you want to open this file as a text file or in QT Designer?"

(Text File QT Designer Cancel)


Cheers
Jason
