Description msjasinski 2015-09-21 19:14:07 UTC
The order of buttons for actions such as 
{ CANCEL / CLOSE  
 HELP  
 BACK / NEXT  
 FINISH / CREATE / OK }
differs from dialog to dialog. This is very confusing for users. There should be an (intuitive) rule for their uniform order (for Westerners, in terms of LEFT to RIGHT).

Explained in more detail on this page:

Well spotted. The button sequence should also fit the system default, which is different from Windows and Linux to Mac OS X, IIRC.
Comment 2 Buovjaga 2015-09-22 13:39:13 UTC
NEW it is then.

Comment 4 Heiko Tietze 2017-01-23 14:33:35 UTC
Caolan submitted a patch in bug 104897 to have buttons in the system typical sequence. So this issue should be solved.
