Description:
[Acceptance]If do not specify the specific outputs in Visibility, the radio button will turn to For all outputs automatically[0001]

Build number:

Steps to reproduce:
1, New a table
2, Select the table and turn to Visibility page
3, Select one type such as html.
4, Disselect that type

Expected result:
The page shouldn't refresh and check the radio button of "For all outputs"

Actual result:
Turn to For all outputs automatically

If none of specific format are selected, then the property value for Visibility is "For all output". The controls on visbility page has to confirm to the visibility property value.

After you un-check the "html" format, then no format is specified to hide. If "For all oupput" check button isn't checked. What is the property value then?
Comment 2 Tianli Zhang CLA 2007-06-15 06:03:54 EDT
That not the acceptance bug, it is the usibility issue. In my opinion, if user want to sepecify all the outputs, he can select that radio button "For all outputs" by himself, If he select none of specific format, he will fill confuse that the radio button turn on "For all outputs" radio button. That is not his expect behavior.

Re-assign to GUI designer colleague. Maybe we need a enhanced mock up for visibility page.
Comment 4 Dazheng Gao CLA 2007-07-02 22:33:10 EDT
Need more feedback to see if we need to change current behavior.
Comment 5 Aashima Goel CLA 2007-07-11 12:55:13 EDT
I agree with Tianli in comment # 2, this is a usability issue. This is how the radio button should behave:

1. By default the selection is 'For All Outputs'(works fine)
2. If user chooses to select 'Specific Outputs' and checks HTML for example, then HTML should be checked along with 'Specific Output' radio button. (works Fine)

3. If user unchecks 'HTML', 'Specific Output' Radio button should still be selected. If user does not want to choose any specific output, he has to select 'For All Outputs manually'. Unchecking an output should NOT jump the selection to 'For all outputs' automatically (change behavior)
