Bug Description

When adding an attachment to a bug, the form states that a patch be submitted and implies the checkbox be ticked ("Patch (Required)").

However not all attachments are patches (e.g screen shots).

I don't think this is a bug. Each section specifies in brackets whether the field is required to be completed or not. It is necessary to specify whether the attachment is a patch or not, hence this is a required field. The text underneath the title explains what the field is there for.

I think this is sufficiently clear. Does that make sense? If so, please close the bug. If not, can you explain why not?

thanks

I see what you mean, but to me it implies that the attachment has to be a patch.

2 radio buttons "Is patch / Isn't patch" would make more sense to me.
