see bug #300757 for screenshot.

http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Usability/HIG/Capitalization
"Use title capitalization in the following cases: 
* Window and dialog box titles
[...]
* Button labels"

-> window title and button labels wrong

http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Usability/HIG/Buttons
"Prefer using icons on buttons only for ok, apply, cancel like actions."

-> buttons should use icons as they indicate approval or disagreement of the above (app selection)

http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Usability/HIG/Dialogs
"Set input focus on confirmation button."

-> not the case

http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Usability/HIG/Lists_Rich_Lists
"Provide an accelerator key in the label that allows the user to give focus directly to the list."

-> not the case ... also a (semi)colon at the end of the sentence would be nice

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. switch to activity that wants to lunch apps (photos acitivity)
Actual Results:  
fugly dialog

Expected Results:  
proper dialog

Hello!

This bug report was filed for KDE Plasma 4, which reached end-of-support status in August 2015. KDE Plasma 5's desktop shell has been almost completely rewritten for better performance and usability, so it is likely that this bug is already resolved in Plasma 5.

Accordingly, we hope you understand why we must close this bug report. If the issue described  here is still present in KDE Plasma 5.12 or later, please feel free to open a new ticket in the "plasmashell" product after reading https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Bug_Reporting

If you would like to get involved in KDE's bug triaging effort so that future mass bug closes like this are less likely, please read https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved#Bug_Triaging

Thanks for your understanding!

Nate Graham
