Description David Le Sage 2011-03-01 01:27:13 UTC
Description of problem:
If you do not type the name of a station into the configuraiton box, the drop-down does not populate.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora 15 Alpha

How reproducible:
Eery time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add weather applet to desktop.
2. Right-click->Weather Forecast Settings
3. Cannot click on location drop-down to find list of all stations.
  
Actual results:
It took me a while to realise that you had to type the name of your location before you could begin to find near matches with the drop-down.  It was unintuitive.

Expected results:
Should default to populating dropdown with sroll-list of all options for the user if he or she has not typed anything into the dialogue box to limit the search.

Additional info:

Well, as you eventually figured out, you have to type the city in and click Search, then the dropdown will get filled with search results.

There are way too many locations on Earth to list them all!

Well, that would be a upstream wish/bug report anyways.
