#10045 closed Patch - Feature (Trac EOL)

Prevent looping in button list when less than three buttons

Reported by: Xavier Hervy <xavier.hervy@…> Owned by: stuartm
Priority: minor Milestone: needs_triage
Component: MythTV - User Interface Library Version: Master Head
Severity: medium Keywords: MythUIButtonList

Description

This patch intend to improve the usability of mythtv. Basically when the user reach the last/first element in a MythUIButtonList, MoveDown/MoveUp select the first/last button in the list. This behaviour is fine when there is more than 2 items. However when there is only 2 items in the list It can be hard for the user to know which one is selected vs which one is not (theme dependant).

This patch disable this behaviour when there is less than 3 buttons. MoveDown/MoveUp will stay on the last/first Button when the is less than 3 buttons in the list.
