FIJI version info (pasted from bug report form in fiji)

* Press 'l' to open the Command finder window
* Now it is possible to close this window by typing ESC or CMD-W (on Mac) or hitting the Close button, as expected.
* Select the "Show full information" checkbox.
* Now only the Close button works, typing ESC or CMD-W doesn't close the window any more.
* After deselecting "Show full information" ESC and CMD-W still don't work.

I would have expected ESC and CMD-W to still work, irrespective if "Show full information" is selected or not.

Another (also very minor) issue I noticed in the FIJI UI on Mac is with the "save changes?" file dialog.

To reproduce:
* File -> Open Samples -> Blob
* Process -> Smooth (or apply any other operation)
* CMD-W to close the window will bring up the "save changes?" dialog
* Tab will select (i.e. give blue outline to) the "Don't save" button
* Return will execute the "Save" button, not the "Don't save" button as expected. (space does execute "save" as expected).
  Also the Red X window control has no effect. I guess it should either execute "cancel" or be disabled.

Comment 3 Christoph Deil 2012-09-06 19:19:45 CDT

Another minor glitch I noticed is that sometimes the syntax highlighting doesn't match the language selection:

* File -> New -> Script
* Enter some python commands, e.g.
    import os
    print 'hi'
* Language -> Python gives correct syntax highlighting
* Language -> ImageJ Macro and then back Language -> Python and the syntax highlighting stays in ImageJ Macro Mode, i.e. doesn't go back to python mode.
* Language -> JavaScript and then Language -> Python and the syntax highlighting is again in python mode.

The Command Finder and "Save changes?" dialog bugs are fixed in the ImageJ 1.47c daily build. You can see the fixes (in CommandFinder.java and YesNoCancelDialog.java) at <http://fiji.sc/imagej.git>.

Yes, after updating for me the only remaining issue is the incorrect language selection for syntax highlighting described in comment #4.

Comment 6 Johannes Schindelin 2013-07-07 09:57:28 CDT

We will have to address that language switching issue in ImageJ2 once the scripting languages are supported there (the Script Editor in Fiji is just a place-holder until the editor ported to ImageJ2 is able to replace it).
