I completely agree. The long texts should be at least collapsed somehow showing them only as tooltips or on some 'Help' or 'Info' buttons press. There is no sense showing always the long information texts. Created attachment 123910 [details]
Glade file with improved design
What do you think about this? Any other comments?

Glade file with improved design II
This version moves options to a separate tab - makes the dialog even shorter
and there will be some place for more options. (As I wanted to add there
setting for length of validity of authentication ticket for console helper.)
Which one do you like more?
Keep all options with the tab they relate to. So, version 1 is the better of the two. I'd argue that you should use 'h' as the accesskey for Use shadow passwords, and use 'S' for the SMB checkbox to keep up the pattern of using the first letter for the other checkboxes. Used the first .glade file as suggested. (As I didn't want to change translated strings I didn't move the accesskey.) |
