[Bug 871810] Re: Hardware mouse 'back key' doesn't work always in USC

 

** Description changed:

  software-center 5.0.1.4, 5.0.1.5, Ubuntu 11.10
- software-center 5.1.10, Ubuntu 12.04
+ software-center 13.10, Ubuntu 14.04
  
- Problem 1
- When clicking on a category that has no sub-categories like 'Accessories' or 'Fonts' mouse-back-button-click will highlight the entry over which the mouse currently is instead of bringing me back to the USC main page.
+ With a mouse that has a Back button:
  
- Problem 2
- When in a category with sub-categories like 'Developer Tools' and clicking the mouse-back-button when the mouse is over a sub-category icon nothing happens (no back-to-main-action is preformed).
+ 1. From the main screen, click any department or app, then click "All
+ Software", so that you have screens to go Back to.
  
- Problem 3
- When in a category with sub-categories like 'Developer Tools' and clicking the mouse-back-button when the mouse is over a 'Top Rated Developer Tools' item it acts like a left click and opens the top rated item instead of preforming a back-to-main-menu action.
+ 2. Click the Back mouse button over an empty part of the window content.
+ 
+     What happens: USC navigates back, as it should.
+ 
+ 3. Click "All Software" to return to the home screen.
+ 
+ 4. Click the Back mouse button over any of these areas:
+     - A toolbar button
+     - "Our star apps"
+     - An app in the "What's New" area
+     - An app in the "Top Rated" area
+ 
+     What happens: The Back click is treated as a primary click (e.g. left click).
+     What should happen: USC navigates back.
+ 
+ 5. Click the actual Back button in the toolbar twice.
+ 
+ 6. Click the Forward mouse button over an empty part of the window
+ content.
+ 
+     What happens: USC navigates forward, as it should.
+ 
+ 7. Click the Forward mouse button over a toolbar button.
+ 
+     What happens: The Forward click is treated as a primary click (e.g. left click).
+     What should happen: USC navigates forwards.
