I have the same problem, almost every time i have to read the dialog
carefully before i can press a button. Somehow I always expect the
YES/NO should be the answer to the "If you start a new capture without
saving, your current capture data will be discarded." line, and it make
no sense to answer that with YES/NO.
Maybe the "Save capture file before starting a new capture?" should be
moved to the window-title and than the first line in the dialog should
be the "If you start a new capture without saving, your current capture
data will be discarded." and than the question "Save capture file before
starting a new capture?" should be repeated just above the buttons ?
