R4E preference page adjustment When creating an alias for the list of participants, I need to select the "Add". Then I enter the new alias. At that point, the end-user will press "enter" ( By default). In our situation, it activates the "Apply " and "OK" button functionality and the preference page close. This is not very user friendly. On the other hands, the end-user wants to add participants associated to the new alias. To be able to do it, the end user either press again the "Add" for the aliases,this creates a new entry for the alias, then select the previous alias he wanted to add participants, then select the "Add" participants. There is too many click here. Also, it is not obvious on how to enter the participants. Another choice the end-user has is after creating the alias, he has to click to the user or e-mail box to put the focus out of the alias box, then comes back and select the alias he just created, then select the "Add" participants. Again, too many click and really not obvious. I think the table to add the alias need modification to 1- Accept the enter to complete the alias entry without closing the preference page 2- If an alias is entered, then the "Add" participants to this alias should be available right away without having to get out of focus of the alias data entry. It would make it more user friendly if the "Add" participants becomes available when an alias is modified .
