Description

I confirm that absence of this option brings a large inconvenience. Especially when using complex passwords. The Gnome network configuration UI is not part of NM, reassigning the bug to gnome-shell. I don't usee Gnome, I use KDE. But problem is the same. I think this is the NetworkManager feature. (In reply to Josh Berkus from comment #0) > Actual results: > > 3. There is no "show password" option checkbox There should be a "Show Text" action in the entry's right-click menu. Isn't that working?

In KDE (Plasma desktop) "Right click" gives options: Undo Redo Cut Copy Paste Delete Clean Select All (In reply to Eugene Saenko from comment #5) > (In reply to Florian Müllner from comment #4) > > There should be a "Show Text" action in the entry's right-click menu.

And for KDE I have to open the new bugreport?
(In reply to Eugene Saenko from comment #7) > > My comment referred to the UI in gnome-shell. > > And for KDE I have to open the new bugreport? Yes. I don't know which component implements the network agent in Plasma, but it's obviously not gnome-shell. (In reply to Florian Müllner from comment #8) > > And for KDE I have to open the new bugreport? > > Yes. I don't know which component implements the network agent in Plasma, > but it's obviously not gnome-shell. Added BugReport 1322873 This is apparently a problem in KDE NM applet. Re-assigning to plasma-nm component. *** Bug 1322873 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** In KDE NM applet there is an eye icon on the right side of each password field which will show/hide the password for you. Confirmed that "Show Text" exists in Gnome version. and I confirmed comment #12 , that the password fields kde5-nm-connection-editor has an eye icon to show passwords Created attachment 1185253 [details]
Snapshot with no eye icon
I have:
[root@ses-new ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Fedora release 23 (Twenty Three)
[root@ses-new ~]# dnf list plasma-nm
Installed Packages
plasma-nm.i686 5.7.1-1.fc23 @updates
and have no eye icon
What icon theme are you using? That doesn't appear to be default breeze. Maybe it's simply a missing icon. If that's the case, try clicking in some of the empty space immediately to the left of the save icon (on the far right). Created attachment 1185255 [details]
screenshot with eye icon
What is is *supposed* to look like
Rex, you are right. When click on white space left to the Save icon I see my password. Thank you. The question is closed. What icon theme are you using? and for completeness, what widget style, in case that's relevant too. Icon theme: Adwaita Widget style: Breeze Gnome/GTK engine: GTK2 theme: oxygen-gtk GTK3 theme: Default Cursor theme: Breeze Icon theme: Crux Fallback Theme: Crystal SVG This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 23. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '23'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 23 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 23 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-12-20. Fedora 23 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
