I have a question regarding localizable strings: what does "trace" mean in the following two strings (the first one from src/object-ui.cpp, the second from src/sp-image.cpp):

It's the verb form of "trace":

Trace, v. t. imp. 1. To mark out; to draw or delineate with marks; especially, to copy, as a drawing or engraving, by following the lines and marking them on a sheet superimposed, through which they appear; as, to trace a figure or an outline; a traced drawing.
