Description Dimitrios T Tanis 2011-07-24 20:48:40 UTC

Version:           2.4 rc1 (Calligra 2.4 rc1) (using KDE 4.6.0) 
OS:                Linux

"Row" is somewhat OK for tables, but for forms where data are rarely represented as such, it might be confusing for the new user to see eg "Save Row".
Record is more commonly used to express database rows and as such it might be more familiar for new users to work with.

Reproducible: Didn't try



Expected Results:  
Change "Row" in "Save Row/Cancel Row Changes" to "Record"
The change should be primarily in Forms, but also in tables if you like.

I'm filing this wish for 2.4 because if accepted, it's fairly easy to change.

Originally we planned to have Record term used everywhere as MSA does. The point was that most casual users would find themselves lost. 
Now I checked how software aimed a bit more at such casual users, namely FileMaker name these objects: Records.

So agreed, will be changed globally. Again, this shows open discussion can help :)

Revert data_save_record and similar action names to data_save_row

Otherwise it would degrade backward compatibility.
