Bug ID: 422311
Summary: Tooltip in Operations view is misleading, it only
works in Status column
Product: skrooge
Version: Trunk from git
Platform: Flatpak
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: guillaume.deb...@gmail.com
Reporter: skierp...@gmail.com
CC: steph...@mankowski.fr
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
If you hover over an operation, you see a tooltip inviting you to Click or
Ctrl+click, but this only works if you click in the checkmark/Status column.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Double-click on an account to open Operations view.
2. Hover the mouse over an operation row, in any column other than Account, ✓
[checkmark/Status], or Amount.
3. See the tooltip inviting you to "Click to set pointed status. Ctrl+click to
force checked status."
4. Try clicking or Ctrl+clicking.
OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens. This tooltip only applies to the checkmark column. In other
columns these mouse actions select the operation or add it to the selection as
normal.
EXPECTED RESULT
I think the tooltip should only appear when you're in the checkmark/Status
column of the operation, and maybe change its phrases to "Click in this column
to set pointed status. Ctrl+click to force checked status." (There are other
per-column tooltips: hovering over Account shows the account number, hovering
over Amount shows the account balance.)
An alternative would be to have the tooltip show everywhere in the operations
row as it does now but be more specific: "Click in the Status (checkmark)
column to set pointed status. ..."
The pointer could change to a checkmark or something like it when in the Status
column to suggest the special behavior here, though the box in the column is
fairly clear.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma:
KDE Plasma Version: n/a
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.69.0
Qt Version: 5.14.2 using xcb
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
There's no way to know that the column with the checkmark is the Status column,
or what the other icon columns are, so maybe these column heading could use
tooltips.
I think the terminology "pointed" is very confusing to English speakers; I
think "marked" is much better. But that's a big change to UI strings and
documentation.
