Description of problem: Can not assign a static IP to a system in NetworkManager through the Edit Connections Option for an IPv4 configuration. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): NetworkManager-0.8.998-3.git20110419.fc15.x86_64 NetworkManager-vpnc-0.8.998-1.git20110405.fc15.x86_64 NetworkManager-openvpn-0.8.998-1.git20110405.fc15.x86_64 NetworkManager-gnome-0.8.998-3.git20110419.fc15.x86_64 NetworkManager-pptp-0.8.998-1.fc15.x86_64 NetworkManager-glib-0.8.998-3.git20110419.fc15.x86_64 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Right click on NetworkManager, choose 'Edit Connections' 2. Highlight the wired connection, and click the Edit button 3. Click on the IPv4 tab, and change the Method dropdown to Manual 4. Click the Add button, and enter in the necessary IP information Actual results: when you enter in an IP in the Address, or the Netmask or anything, when you click on the next field whatever you just entered will disappear Expected results: The IP information should not vanish when you move to the next field. Additional info: I am doing this on an XFCE desktop, as the NetworkManager in GNOME 3 is far too crippled for our setup.
Hi Kenny Armstrong, don't click on other field but press Enter. But I think there is a bug in this behavior, because I don't point any reason to erase the field if you don't press return.
This is now fixed upstream in master branch: 57ebc568daa3a4ee3cd7bbb85fddc69ffee8d424 (master) A fix for 0.8.x will follow. Summary of the updated behaviour: * Tab key can be used to cycle through cells (as well as Up/Down arrows and Enter) * mouse click can be used to switch between cells * Esc can be used to leave cell (as well as clicking another part of treeview or another widget) * the new edited value is stored on all ways of leaving the cell Some notes: GtkTreeView behaves differently for GTK2/GTK3, which is nuisance. Moreover that's not documented anywhere, so one can't know whether the changes are intended or a bug fix from the previous version or a new bug introduced. The main change appears to be that mouse clicks outside a cell leaves the cell without editing-canceled or editing-done signals issued and thus the value is lost. Also, there are changes in functions setting background colours for a cell and possibly others. Not documented, sigh.
