Ask for confirmation before converting

Open fam4r opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I'm always frustrated when: I mislick on the context menu on the GUI and press on "Convert to XX"

Describe the solution you'd like Ask for confirmation before starting the conversion.

Additional context Context of GUI usage.

Thanks for raising the issue. I can see a couple of options for ways to solve the problem e.g.

  • Have a cancel button somewhere else obvious (e.g. a modal dialog, since there's not much you can do while it's converting anyway)
  • Move the menu items so they are not next to commonly used items

If adding a confirmation dialog, I'd want to have an option to toggle it in the options window (and optionally, a "don't ask me again" checkbox)

Modal + "don't ask me again" seems a straightforward and effective solution in my opinion.

Thank you
