In English: I don't know if it is a problem with the english translation "Continue" for the OK button, but since two of my (english) friends ran into this usability issue I believe it is worth reporting. > > In partitioner and partconf you have a select question generating some > kind of menu, together with a "Finish" entry.

In partitioner and partconf you have a select question generating some kind of menu, together with a "Finish" entry. However it turned out that people believed that the "Continue" button would have the meaning of the Finish button. They selected "Continue" but the select question was still pointing at some other entry than "Finish" and they were confused about the result. > > I'd propose to drop the "Ok" button entirely in select questions, > because it makes no sense having it there anyway.

Solving translation issues is an other thing. > > Regards, > Sebastian Geert Stappers -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
