Public bug reported:
https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/29391
Affects: gnome-panel (Ubuntu)
Severity: Normal
Priority: (none set)
Status: Unconfirmed
Description:
I click on "Connect to a server" in the "shortcuts" Gnome menu and then
I fillfull the form and click on "Connect".
And I wait but nothing happen: no window explain me the connection has
failed. And a long time after, I realized that an icon has been added on
the desktop. I cannot see it sooner because others windows hide it.
And I realized that the aim of this form is not to connect to a server
but to add a shortcut on the desktop.
I suggest the following:
- The button name of the form must not be called "Connect" because it does not
connect when I click on it. Call it for example "Add the shortcut on the
desktop".
- When the user click on this button, show a little dialog window explaining:
"An icon shortcut has been successfully added on your desktop. You can see it
if you hide all others windows". Without this explanation, how can the user
know that the form just does not work?
I use GNOME 2.12.1 with Ubuntu 5.10.
