<p>Hi Julian, and thank you!</p>

<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">- If the checkbox is ticked, then by default the first entry of the
combobox is activated ("DefaultProxy"). Now it could be read that
the default selection of the combobox, the "DefaultProxy", uses the
system's proxy.
- Last, and that is my understanding, "Default uses system's proxy"
actually references the name of the "DefaultProxy" comboxbox option
so if the user selects "DefaultProxy", then the system's proxy is
used. (Same outcome as with the previous one but for a different
reason).

<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">Sorry, I don't get your point here, everything looks normal to me.

<p>My point is the ambiguity of the wording and what "default" might
mean to the user.</p>
<p><span style="white-space: pre-wrap">The three paragraphs are meant to be potential interpretations by the user.</span></p>
<p><span style="white-space: pre-wrap">There is</span> 1) the dialog
having its default settings upon first open, 2) the combobox
having a default selection upon activation and 3) the combobox
containing something named "Default...".<span
style="white-space: pre-wrap">
</span></p>
<p></p>
<p>Am I right that the text is meant to reference the
"DefaultProxy"? I read up on Qt's proxy handling today and it does
seem to work like that.<span style="white-space: pre-wrap">

<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">Why not having a tool tip instead of a help text just besides the
combobox ? or at least remove the help text when you don't select
"Default Proxy" ?

<p>Changing just that one word would be a trivial PR. Changing logic
would require me to compile and test and since I am very rarely
doing anything C++ related it would probably be hours of work
(and/or waiting). And then I would forget something and have to do
it again :)<br>
