Bug: right-clicking the Enabled 'green/grey ball' affects it

[Jheriko]

It should not affect it (that is, enable/disable), as a left click would.

It should only bring up the context menu. (well, in my opinion, anyway)



As yes, speaking of context menu, perhaps adding "Enable"/"Disable" to it would be nice.

Seeing as some people might not know off-hand what that "weird green little ball" is,
or more importantly, they don't know it's actually clickable.

Or they might have the whole Enabled column disabled.

You probably won't get an answer until next week as Wladimir probably won't be available until then

We will have to wait for him (it is not urgen, anyway) but I think Jheriko is right: right click should only open context menu, in fact this is the standard behaviour if the mouse is hovered on any other column of this window.

Maybe the issue of enable/disable is something worth to be discussed; for me a green bullet is OK (short and evident) but there are many people using ABP who dont know there is such an option. It seems that 99 % of users do not read FAQ or help when installing the extension.

Could I get more details? What do you see and on which OS/Firefox version?

It should only bring up the context menu.

It does - IMO.

Isn't it already there?

In the Preferences window (at least using Fx 1.5.0.4 and Windows XP SP2, I do not have Linux available here) if you right click on a filter the context menu is displayed (but not enable/disable option on it) - unless the mouse is placed over the green bullet when you right click. In this last case instead of context menu, the filter (and the green bullet) changes from enabled to disabled, or the other way round.
It happens at least in the last ABP release, I did not notice it before Jheriko did so I do not know if it has been always there or not.

Ah, now I get it. Too late for 0.7.1.1 release sadly - it is in AMO's review queue already.

Edit: Fixed this.

Edit2: I thought better about it and replaced 0.7.1.1 in AMO's queue by a new build, so this bug will be fixed in the release.
