           Summary: KDE Accessibility Tool - Mouse Keys dialog
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Debian unstable
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: eljefedelito at gmail.com


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.3) 
OS:                Linux

Current Mouse Keys dialog is very unclear in what it is asking:
> Do you really want to activate 'Mouse Keys'?
> An app has requested to change these settings...
> When a gesture is used: [Drop down with options]
>  [Yes]  [No]

This current dialog makes the [Yes][No] buttons seem to act on what the user
picks for the drop down, and NOT for answering the question at the top of the
dialog.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Get KDE to ask if you want to use mouse keys.  Read the first sentance, read
the rest and forget about the first sentence by the time you reach the end. 
Select something from the dropdown and get confused as to what the [Yes][No]
buttons are for.

Actual Results:  
 Select something from the dropdown and get confused as to what the [Yes][No]
buttons are for.

Expected Results:  
The TOP of the dialog should read:
> Mouse Keys Activation
> An app has requested to change these settings...
> Do you really want to activate Mouse Keys?
> [Yes][No]

There should then be a separator and the BOTTOM part of the KDE dialog should
read,
> Change these settings: when a Mouse Keys gesture is used in the future:
> [Drop down with current options]
> You can change these settings in KDE's System Settings > ____

While I think this is an important tool for some people, it seems to have just
been thrown together with all of the text on top and the buttons on the bottom,
without any thought as to what is being asked and the order of the buttons and
information.

I think what people (who DON'T need this tool) would do here is to set via
dropdown 'Disable AccessX', and then click [Yes] thinking they're disabling
AccessX/Mouse Keys when they're really answering the first sentence, 'Do you
want to enable Mouse Keys'.
