The 3.0 solution for context help was to overlay the dialog with a yellow infopop shell. The user would need to dismiss it to continue working. The new help pane offers much more information, but it is less obvious to users that they cannot use the dialog while it is open. If we need to ship with the line mentioned above, we should at least do something with the parent dialog to indicate that it will not work until the help window is closed. *** Bug 94737 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** can we increase the priority of this, I think it is important for usability of help? Fixed. Help view will open on top of the GTK dialog and no tracking, flipping etc. will occur. |
