*** KVIrc Style Tips ***
************************
[Dialog Windows]
- Title should be like "Choose a Script File", not "Choose a script file".
- For any non-modal dialogs (config ones, etc.), the name should have " - KVIrc"
at the end. This also applies to wizards and file selection dialogs.
[Menubars]
- Menus have specific locations in menubars, see KDE style guide.
[Menus]
- Menu item text be like "An Item", not "An item"
- Common items are:
"Cu&t" "&Copy" "&Paste" "Clear" "&Open..." "&Save As..."
- Items that open a dialog or otherwise require confirmation or additional
information should have "..." immediately following their text (no spaces).
[Selector Widgets]
- bool selector labels should be like "Enable debug output"
- string/file path/integer selectors should have labels with a colon ":" at the end, e.g. "Comment:"
- QGroupBox text should be like "Use Filtering For".
- Config selector tooltips should have "<center></center>", and end each
sentence with a fullstop (period). There should be few <br> except for
separating sections.
[Buttons]
- Button text should be like "A Button", not "A button".
- Common labels are:
"&OK" "&Apply" "Cancel" "&New" "&Add..." "Re&move" "&Close" "&Browse..."
- Button QToolTips should be a description of its function, and
ending with a fullstop (period):
"Accept all changes, and close this dialog."
"Kill the current user." ("Kill", not "Kills")
- OR if the button has no text, the tooltip should be the *label text*.
- Buttons are best in a QHBox.
- Try to keep names short.
