Attachments:	Dialog after clicking QoS icon. Rt-click -> Properties dialog on a connection

Description jlautz 2008-04-04 19:24:09 UTC

Seen with M8 build on Solaris x86:

Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200803251204) - Java CAPS Enabled
Java: 1.5.0_11; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.5.0_11-b03
System: SunOS version 5.10 running on x86; ISO646-US; en (nb)
Userdir: /Users/lautz/sierrabuilds/JavaCAPSM8/.netbeans/caps

When I choose Properties on a connection I get a dialog labeled "<connection identifier> - Properties".

When I click QoS on a connection I get a dialog for the exact same properties as the dialog above, but it's labeled
"Config QoS Properties". 

It's confusing to have two labels for the same dialog that configures the same dialogs (also causes doc and test
automation problems). Please use only one consistently.

Screenshots attached.

Rt-click -> Properties dialog on a connection

Comment 3 jlautz 2008-04-04 19:32:30 UTC

Clarification: "Choose Properties" means rt click on the connection and choose Properties.

BTW -- my suggestion is more like what we do with edit icons on the Ports.
