[gcompris-devel] Testing CVS-Version

[Ronny Standtke]

Hi all,

Today I made an CVS update and tested again. Here are the results:

1. Wrong OK-Button handling in dart game

If you click the OK-Button in the dart game before you throw any dart the 
board happily accepts this as a correct solution. It should be the opposite.

No, its not fixed. I noticed that the flower is not modal in any case 
(positive / negative). You can click the answer button several times during 
the presentation of the flower. If you click the "correct" button several 
times you can crash gcompris because for every click it moves one level 
further even when the level does not exists any more.

Not fixed. The pause is still there and you can still select another solution 
during the pause. This can lead to the situation that in e.g. the 
missing_letter board the solution is already displayed (the missing 
character) but the selected (last) solution is wrong. Then the board keeps 
asking a letter it already shows :-P

Sorry, I hardly know how chess works...

The same applies here. But I know that there is a white and a black side :-)
