Public bug reported: 1. Create a dialog that has “Cancel” and “OK” buttons, and other contents that make it too tall to fit in some situations — for example, on a phone in landscape mode with the OSK present. 2. Open the dialog in that situation.
What you see: The “Cancel” and “OK” buttons are not visible, because they are scrolled off the bottom of the dialog. What you should see: Like the title, the “Cancel” and “OK” buttons are always visible, because they are in a toolkit-provided dialog action area that does not scroll. <https://goo.gl/H5ZBvQ> (currently Canonical-only link, sorry): “A dialog should … have an optional action area containing the buttons that (among other things) dismiss the dialog … Whenever the dialog contents do not fit on the device display — or, when the OSK is shown, the dialog does not fit showing all its contents in the non-OSK area — the body area alone should scroll inside the dialog, so that the title and the action area are both always visible.” This is the cause of bug 1558531, and a sequel to bug 1376763. ** Affects: ubuntu-ui-toolkit (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1561082 Title: Dialog lacks built-in non-scrolling action area for buttons To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/+bug/1561082/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
