Description Dawid Gajownik 2006-02-04 13:22:05 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20060203 SeaMonkey/1.5a

Description of problem:
One of the installer step is similar to this one รข http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/fedora-install-guide-en/fc4/figs/net-config-dhcp.png In "Miscellaneous Settings" user can provide IP settings of gateway and DNS servers.

Try typing for example 192.168.0.1. After "192" you have to press TAB or use your mouse to place cursor in the next left field. IMHO this could be done automatically after typing third number.

It would be also nice if keyboard arrows could change mentioned position of the cursor. For instance, after typing "0", left arrow would place cursor in the next left field.

Oh, if you place cursor in prevoiusly filed field, numbers should be selected (?) so you will not need to use "backspace" or "delete" to enter new value.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
anaconda-10.91.13-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:

We're going to be overhauling the screen for FC6 probably, so we'll look into
this then. 

Comment 3 Chris Lumens 2006-06-08 19:07:56 UTC
This widget has been removed to make it more simple to type in IPv6 addresses,
so this RFE no longer applies.
