--- Comment #1 from Taro Tanaka <mkr...@gmail.com> --- FWIW, I asked ChatGPT "OK button v.s. Cancel button; which should be on the bottom right corner in dialogs?" and here's the answer: --- START QUOTE --- Traditionally, in dialog boxes or user interfaces, the "OK" button is placed on the bottom right corner, while the "Cancel" button is placed next to it, on the left. This convention has been followed in many operating systems and applications for several reasons: 1. Visual Hierarchy: Placing the primary action (usually "OK" or "Confirm") on the right side draws attention and emphasizes it as the default or preferred choice. 2. Reading Order: In cultures that read from left to right, the natural flow of reading moves from left to right and top to bottom. Placing the "OK" button on the bottom right aligns with this reading pattern. 3. User Expectations: Users have become accustomed to this layout over time, making it a familiar and predictable pattern across various applications. Deviating from this convention might lead to confusion and an inconsistent user experience. 4. Accessibility: It is essential to consider the needs of users with disabilities. Placing the primary action button on the bottom right ensures that users who navigate through the interface using keyboard controls can easily find and activate the main action. However, it's important to note that design conventions can evolve over time, and different user interfaces or platforms may adapt to newer layouts. Always consider the specific context, user base, and platform guidelines when designing dialog boxes or any other user interface components. If you are designing for a specific platform or application, it's a good idea to review their design guidelines and recommendations for button placement to ensure your design aligns with their conventions and provides the best user experience. --- END QUOTE --- -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
