I would like furthermore change:

  • The slots Prev/Next in a way that they not forward one item but one error. This way is the action labeled but perhaps is the current behaviour intended(?)
  • Add the buttons for Prev/Next which are missing.
  • Change displayModeSlider/displayModeLabel into a QCombobox, save some space.
  • Merge the buttons Build/Cancel so that they are morph by using a stacked widget. Unfortunately is Nate against such lovely stuff

I'm not sure why you have to move the setFocus() call to the beginning of the function... your comment says something about selection...

The style change is probably not needed here, tho I don't have much against fixing the style...

But otherwise it looks good.

Changing the next/previous slots to go to the items with line numbers would be a good change.

I don't think we need the buttons for next/previous. If you use the keyboard for navigating you want the shortcuts and if you use the mouse it is much quicker to just navigate the results and click the wanted item.

I'm not 100% happy with the slider either... I'm almost inclined to go back to the multiple tabs ("Target Settings", "Full output", "Parsed output", "Warnings & Errors", "Errors")

I don't think we are pressed on space to need to merge the buttons...

I move this up to reduce code redundancies. Without this patch was only the focus changed when we hit the right item, now happens this almost every time. But in these rare case would then the chosen item kept the focus, but that hurts literally my eyes.

I don't think we need the buttons for next/previous. If you use the keyboard for navigating you want the shortcuts and if you use the mouse it is much quicker to just navigate the results and click the wanted item.

I guess I didn't need these buttons too, but have the feeling they should be there

Well, I like such behaviour. So the space is not the reason :-)

Changing the next/previous slots to go to the items with line numbers would be a good change.

Good, will try to do it (here or extra patch?)

  • Even with LANG=C will some things not translated back due to the use of i18n as save key, IIRC
  • The German translations are BTW really terrible, but sadly they are kept in some other repository
  • Sometimes I miss the possibility to select/copy some lines of the output
  • Regarding "garish highlighting" (read that better?) I was about to disable the possibility to select an item by the UI file, but I guess you would dislike the idea. And, yes, it's then not so easy to see where we are

@ngraham It would be nice you could give a comment to our talk, most notably

  • Merge Build/Cancel buttons
  • Add Prev/Next buttons, as you see no buttons here but the actions are avaialble
  • Better solution to choose the view mode. I like the current more than the old "one tab per mode" but it's somehow strange
