Summary: Usability: Bug report dialog should close after I click
Report bug
Product: kde
Version: unspecified
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs kde org
ReportedBy: ahmedbassi gmail com
Version: (using KDE 4.0.98)
Installed from: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
I guess from a usability point of view: when a user clicks report bug and it invokes the browser .. it is expected that he will proceed on the bug report using his preferred browser
however the bug report dialog does not close automatically but is kept open .. and when you return to the app you find that the dialog is still there to close it manually with the 'close' button.
The launch bug report button assumes the function of an ok button and I think it better closes the dialog after it invokes the browser
am I correct? What do usability guys think?
I'll take a stab since I am pretty much a noob at this .. but I guess it is here

line 398
00398 void KBugReport::accept()
00399 {
00400 if ( d->submitBugWeb ) {
00401 KToolInvocation::invokeBrowser( d->url.url() );
00402 return;
00403 }
The function returns and that's it .. probably adding a close() after the return will solve the problem correct?
