preference dialogue
Hi all,
I yust want to inform you that I commited some code to change
the language of the user-interface within the preferences dialogue.
WOW !
thats all, happy new year!!!
It sure will be with this new preference! I vote this to be the headline
feature of 0.47 ! ;)
Seriously, this is really a nice feature so users don't have to hack
their way to another language anymore! Super!
Happy new year :-)

While this is a long requested feature, having a dedicated tab in
Preferences dialog is just overkill, IMO. Could you please move it to
Interface tab?

Done. Moved to the "Interface" page. Revision 20459. Adib.

I have fixed a bug in this feature. Some language labels where not matching
with their respective langcodes: pt, pt_BR, sr, sr@...1894..., es and es_MX where
wrong.
Also, I would like to ask whether the correct default value shouldnt be ""
(that is, langValues[0]) instead of languages[0] (which is _("System
default")).

Hello Juca,
thank you for your eyes. ;-) I retrieved the list of languages by ls
command and the special versions came before the general.
the function _ui_languages.init( "/ui/language", languages,
langValues, G_N_ELEMENTS(languages), languages[0]);
initiates the combo box. Where languages[0] gives the default value
for the caption. This is then _("System default")
I modified the combo box widget to also handle pairs of string:string
in addition to string:integer.
HTH and thank you again,
Adib.

At would be most useful if Inkscape sorted various entries
alphabetically in any locale and thus eliminate use of "lang_LANG" ad
other tricks. I also mean LPE effects list in combobox. Somehow GIMP
does it for localized filters. Navigating through unsorted lists or a
list where entries start with something like "en@...1443..." is quite
unusual ;-)
Alexandre

Alexandre,
I do not think that sorting by localized strings makes any sense in this case.
If I switched (just in error) to Chinese or even Finish how can I revert that?
Maybe it would be good not to localize the entries but to translate
inside the code, so that Chinese is always displayed in chinese
letters, Russian always using the Cyrillic, German always as
"Deutsch". So the native speaker will recognize quite soon.
And yes the en_... etc. is somehow cryptic and not for the user.
Is there any example switching the interface language inside the application?
HTH, Adib.

Sounds good to me, with the only exception that gcc will swear like
hell about use of Unicode in source code.

So don't use literal Unicode values, just escapes, etc.
Source code should remain pure ASCII (0-127) characters.

the flag icons are one way to avoid that issue of mistakenly choosing a
locale you dont understand. And it is beautiful!

Please not! Flags for representing languages is bad concept, because
of this three reasons:
1. There are countries with more than one language (e.g. Switzerland has four).
2. There are languages without any representing country (e.g. Kurdish)
3. Some Flags are political problematic. (e.g. If we add the Taiwan
flag to Inkscape, Inscape will no longer be allowed in China)
Regards,

And think of the confused arabic users: arabic is the official language for
at least a dozen countries so what flag should represent it?

And confusing. Just think of all the people who can't find English
