Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (2): Steven Sidore, Vanessa Schlueter

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

(5-) button row

I think in this case we are obviously not talking about a typical design.

Example:

"Button row
The three button row is used to control the available actions, as follows"

"Help messages for each field will also be found at the bottom of your screen just above the button row"

neutral John Jory : Warum wird dann nicht der übliche Begriff 'Symbolleiste' bzw. 'Werkzeugleiste' verwendet? Ich glaube, dass hier mit Absicht 'Buttonleiste' gewählt wurde.
