Description Miloslav Trmac 2002-05-09 10:30:16 UTC
[reported also to bugs.kde.org]
After upgrade to KDE3 and seeing the
results of import from kab, I decided to type the ~50 entries by hand.
The address book entry dialog is unusable without switching between mouse and 
keyboard all the time:
* Most of the edit box labels have no shortcut key
* Open the detailed Address subdialog,
enter the stret info. There is NO WAY to move to other edit boxes without using 
a mouse
* this is probably a generic kde widget issue: in the Details/birthday
date entry dialog, why the $#@! can't I just TYPE THE DATE in the editbox?

The first point seems to be better, second two same in 8.0

This seems to be fixed in Phoebe.
