The AbiTable has some subtle bugs, some were
introduced in the integration process, and some were
there originally. Some of them:
* The "Click on the icon, drag the mouse and release
the mouse button" doesn't work to create a table.
Instead the user has to do "click on the icon, release
the mouse button, drag the mouse, click".
* I was confused the first time I saw the widget at a
size of 1x1. IMO a minimum size of 3x3 is better.
* Create a table with the widget, pass the button
again over the icon, and you will see that it's not
highlighted like the others buttons.
* At first I though it was a good idea to gave a
starting size of 4x5 to the table, because that way
the user should be able to select its desired size
using the keyboard faster than if we start with a 0x0
table (MS selects a 0x0 table on startup of the
widget). Unfortunatelly that makes harder for the
user to cancel the operation. If the user clicks by
mistake on the icon, it moves up the mouse button and
it releases it, we should just cancel the operation,
but instead we create a 4x5 table. IMO is better to
just start with a 0x0 table.
This patch solves all these problems. Please commit
it.
Cheers,
