Description Thomas Pfeiffer 2012-04-29 15:40:13 UTC
The New Activity Password and Activity Password dialogs currently do not comply with the corresponding HIG (http://community.kde.org/Plasma/Active/Development/ActiveHIG/Dialogs) in several ways and thus should be changed:

1. The buttons (OK/Cancel and Unlock/Dismiss) are still placed at the bottom of the dialog. They have to be moved to the dialog title (as in the Activity Configuration dialog)

2. The button labels do not comply with the HIG and are inconsistent. To make them compliant,
 a) The "Dismiss" button in the Activity Password dialog has to be renamed to "Cancel"
 b) The "OK" button in the "New Activity Password" dialog has to be renamed to "Save"

3. The dialog titles do not describe actions. They should be changed to:
 a) "Unlock Activity" instead of "Activity Password"
 b) "Set Activity Password" instead of "New Activity Password"

With these changes, the dialogs would be HIG compliant, more consistent with other dialogs and with user expectations.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set an Activity to private
2. Tap "Save and Enter Password"

or

1. Open a private Activity
Actual Results:  
Dialogs inconsistent with HIG and other dialogs appear

Expected Results:  
Consitent dialogs appear

Have we agreed in using capital words in title? Currently we use "New activity password", should we change it to "Set activity password" or "Set Activity Password"?

Change translatable strings to comply to Plasma Active's HIG. Still
needs to move the "Save" and "Cancel" buttons to the dialog's title bar.

There was no official agreement. However if nobody objects, I'd like to set title capitalization as the standard for, well, titles.

I am more concerned about coerence. If we change that it should be done for all strings as quickly as possible.

Definitely. The Edit Activity dialog is currently being adapted by Marco. For the Add Items dialog, I've opened Bug 299102. These are all dialogs I am aware of. If anyone finds another one, just file a bug.
Comment 7 Fania Bremmer 2012-05-02 14:06:33 UTC
Ah, talking about Wording I would like to propose to change the current "Add items" title in the add-resource dialog to "Add Content" as it sounds far more familiar and less technical.
Comment 8 Lamarque V. Souza 2012-05-04 15:09:05 UTC
If there are no objections about comments #6 and #7 I will do the changes until next week.
