E.g turning on Bluetooth – either the user wants to turn in on, or not. Sure, the Apply / Cancel removes the possibility of someone clicking around hitting the "On" checkbox. But I think it's better to optimize for regular use, and not have a Apply button when you just checked to apply.
- barrkel 16y agoI don't think the Apply button is a good idea, as I said in a cousin posting. Ideally changes would be previewed in a modeless dialog, even to the point of temporarily enabling Bluetooth, but still with a cancel option.
- lovskogen 16y agoBut wouldn't the checkbox serve as a cancel option too?
