[Bug 1045799] Re: Manual partitioner: Add tooltips to icons 'Add', 'Remove', and 'Modify'

[Erick Brunzell]

Everyone needs to put their noob shoes on :^)

I just tried starting with this:

https://launchpadlibrarian.net/114858452/result.png

I selected /dev/sdb2 which is  root (/) and clicked on "-".

At that point nothing appears to happen so I QUIT!

OK, nothing had happened that I can see after a reboot, but PUT YOUR
NOOB SHOES ON!

NOTHING HAPPENED, so most noobs will start clicking on other things
while that change is still pending!

THIS IS HORRIBLE!

IMHO Beta 1 should be held until the installer devs kick the living crap
out of some stupid designers!

I realize that's a bit over the top but I will not be part of another of
these fiasco's:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/766265

They have many cousins!

Do as you wish, but I'd almost think the design team has been
infiltrated by Win saboteurs ;^)

Title:
  Manual partitioner: Add tooltips to icons 'Add', 'Remove', and
  'Modify'

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Quantal Desktop 20120903.4

  On the manual partitioner there are 3 small icons below the partition
  list: a plus sign, and minus sign, and a gear. But their meaning is
  not clear and tooltips like "Add partition", "Remove partition" and
  "Modify partition" would clarify their usage.
