[Bug 592796] [NEW] Changing language requires restart, but no indication is given

 

Public bug reported:

Version tested: RevAger trunk, Revision 49
Environment: Windows XP SP3, 32bit, Java 1.6.0.17-b04, 

Steps to reproduce:
- delete your revager settings directory, start RevAger.
- click on the language flag
- choose the desired language and click the confirm button.

Expected behavior:
- after selecting the language, RevAger instantly changes the language or offers the option to restart itself to make the changes take effect.

Actual behavior:
- clicking the language button in the selection gives almost no visual feedback.
- clicking the confirm dialog does not close the popup window
- the language is not switched, and no indication why this is the case is given - the user has to "guess", that a restart of the application might be required.

Another minor usability flaw: Why do we need this confirm button for
changing the language actually?
