Bug ID: 364226 Summary: theme should highlight the default action in dialogs Product: Breeze Version: unspecified Platform: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: plasma-de...@kde.org Reporter: skierp...@gmail.com Created attachment 99463 --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=99463&action=edit In this Kate replace panel, what will happen when I press [Enter]? I'm running KDE Frameworks 5.22.0 & QT 5.5.1 from the KDE backport PPA on Kubuntu 16.04. I noticed in both KDE applications and other applications (Thunderbird, GIMP, etc.) the default action in a dialog, the one that will take place if you press the Enter key, is not indicated. This makes it harder to operate KDE from the keyboard. I'm using the default Breeze theme so I filed this against Breeze, but I tried switching to Oxygen and the default button was no more apparent. To reproduce, open some text document in Kate, press Ctrl+R to bring up replace, and enter "a" in the Find text field and "z" in the Replace text field. The action buttons all enable (good). At this point I really need to know what will happen if I press the Enter key on the keyboard, but I can't tell the buttons apart (bad). Will it do a Replace, Replace All, or Find All? All dialogs seem to have this problem. Another example: I'm never sure in settings dialogs whether pressing [Enter] will Apply (and stay visible) or OK (and go away). Expected result: the default button has some sort of indication, such as a ring or pulse or a filled in color, like every other desktop environment I use. To see some of the visual effects other DEs use, Google "default dialog button on enter" and click Images. According to http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qdialog.html#default , Qt apps have fine control over what button is default and which dialog items can trigger it on pressing Enter. But KDE (or Breeze) doesn't indicate this. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
