[Qgis-user] Button order on Add Data dialogues

[McDonaldR]

Hi List,

I'm running QGIS 2.18.12 and latest 2.99 on Windows 7.  I have a question about the order of the buttons in the dialogue boxes on the Manage Layers toolbar.  Maybe it's my OCD and maybe others have a similar issue...

*         The Add Spatialite dialogue has Add | (Set Filter) | (Update Statistics) | Close | Help


*         The Add WCS dialogue has Close | Add | Help


*         The Add WMS dialogue has Add | Close | Help **


*         The Add Database Layer dialogue has Add | Set Filter | Close | Help

To me the order of Add | Close | Help makes sense and the order of the buttons on the WCS dialogue** is a minor bug.

In the latest master 2.99 the buttons on the Add Data dialogue boxes have all been switched to be Close | Add | Help with the Add button disabled until a layer has been selected. Now I don't know if it is just me but I am used to using buttons that have the "positive" action of Add or OK first and then the "negative" action of Close or Cancel next (to the right) and then Help (if required).

Maybe I just need to be retrained to click the next button to the right but at the moment it just feels wrong as I keep clicking Close instead of Add.  Anyone else?  Is it a feature request to have the button order changed or a minor bug?

Thanks

Ross
