[Bug 1426471] Re: Guideline/documentation has no layout recommendation for buttons in dialogs
------------------------------
Desired resolution:
*Will be added to the guide in the new designs*
http://design.ubuntu.com/apps/getting-started/design-vision
When buttons are stacked vertically we recommend that negative actions
should be displayed at the bottom, and positive at the top.
http://design.ubuntu.com/apps/building-blocks/dialog
We will give best practises in this section for different layouts, but
in general the same rule applies.
https://developer.ubuntu.com/api/qml/sdk-14.04/Ubuntu.Components.Popups.Dialog/
Will hand this over to someone who can put another example in there for
a horizontal layout.

Guideline/documentation has no layout recommendation for buttons in

Bug description:
Reading the current documentation there is no real guidance on how to
layout buttons in Dialogs.
The "design vision" section 4. [1] mentions "Positive actions always
go on the right, negative on the left", which suggests an horizontal
alignment for the buttons, but the building blocks section [2] doesn't
mention the topic and the uitk defaults to stacking things vertically,
including the API example [3], while the uitk-gallery example program
does show an horizontal layout by stacking its button in a row (if
that's recommended way, the API example should perhaps reflect that?)
Those lacks lead our applications to be inconsistant, e.g the delete
confirmations actions in gallery or camera have there delete/don't
button vertically stacked, is that the correct way?
