Confusing prompt copy when cancelling an export

See original GitHub issue

Platform: 17.4.0 Darwin Kernel Version 17.4.0: Sun Dec 17 09:19:54 PST 2017; root:xnu-4570.41.2~1/RELEASE_X86_64 x86_64 Kap Version: Version 2.1.1 (2.1.1.747)

Steps to reproduce

  • Make a recording,
  • Export as .gif
  • Click on Cancel Export button
  • Read copy on the confirm cancellation modal

Current behaviour

Confirm modal says Are you sure you want to cancel the export? and the two options of Continue and Cancel Export. It is unclear if Continue means I want to continue with cancelling the export or continue with the export. screen shot 2018-03-23 at 9 00 51 am

Expected behaviour

Confirm modal says Are you sure you want to cancel the export? and the two options should say something like Yes and No or Do not Cancel and Cancel.

I think the buttons should be [Continue Export] and [Cancel Export]. Yes/No buttons are not recommended by the macOS Human Interface Guidelines: https://developer.apple.com/macos/human-interface-guidelines/windows-and-views/alerts/

@skllcrn It looks like the prompt already only appears when clicking [x], I’ve updated the text in https://github.com/wulkano/kap/pull/438
