Bug Description
When you don't have a Text Editor configured, selecting the option "Preferences -> Set Text Editor" shows two different dialogs asking for the executable of the new Text Editor if in the first one you select "Cancel".
Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Go To "Preferences -> Set Text Editor".
2. The message "No default editor found, you must choose it" appears. Press OK.
3. A dialog titled "Preferred Editor:" appears. Press Cancel.
4. A new dialog titled "Select Preferred Editor" appears. (This is the bug, it should ask again for the editor).
5. Press "Cancel" again. The dialog closes.
I'm reporting this bug here to know if someone else is working on it, but actually, I want to correct it myself. I want to start contributing to the project and I'd like to solve this bug to get used to the process.
So please tell me if anyone else is looking into this issue. I've attached a video showing the error.
Thanks.
