What does it mean to snap FROM something
by Arpad Biro
Hi,
In 0.47 we have some new strings like these:
"Snap from and to midpoints of bounding box edges"
"Snap from and to centers of objects"
Now what does it mean to snap FROM a point?

description strings on GUI
by Arpad Biro
Hi,
Does anyone know where these description strings are displayed
on the GUI (I just want to see them on screen to know how long
can the translated strings be):
"Bounding box edges"
"Move mode"
There are a lot of strings of this kind, these are just two
examples. They seem to be descriptions for actions.
In source code they appear like this (src/widgets/toolbox.cpp):
InkToggleAction* act =
ink_toggle_action_new("ToggleSnapToBBoxPath",
_("Bounding box edges"), _("Snap to edges of a
bounding box"),
INKSCAPE_ICON_SNAP_BOUNDING_BOX_EDGES,
secondarySize, SP_ATTR_INKSCAPE_BBOX_PATHS);
gtk_list_store_set( model, &iter,
0, _("Move mode"),
1, _("Move objects in any direction"),
2, INKSCAPE_ICON_OBJECT_TWEAK_PUSH,
-1 );

Help with "smooth shader NR"
by Lucas Vieites
Hi,
I'm finding a lot of strings talking about "shaders". Are these
shaders the same as the ones in 3D rendering?
Also; what is "NR" in all these strings:
Smooth shader NR
Emboss shader NR
Smooth shader dark NR
Satin NR
Thanks in advance,

Where to start
by Rivo
Hello!
I can offer my help with Estonian translation. Could §mebody please point me
to the right direction. Where to start? Can somebody provide file(s) what
need to translate or give a link if translation is going to be done online?
I'm no developer, so I'm not the familiar with tools like SVN etc. But I
assure, that I can provide help with translating. ;)
Best Regards,

Updated POT from svn source
by Aleksandar Urošević
Hello,
I'm trying to update Serbian localisation to recent svn in this way:
./autogen.sh
./configure --prefix=/home/urke/opt
cd po
make update-po
But after that I get this error:
urke@...214...:~/devel/svn/inkscape/po$ make update-po
make inkscape.pot
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/urke/devel/svn/inkscape/po'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `../share/filters/filters.svg.h',
needed by `inkscape.pot'. Stop. make[1]: Leaving directory
`/home/urke/devel/svn/inkscape/po' make: *** [update-po] Error 2
There is not filters.svg.h file, but if i remove filters/filters.svg.h
and patterns/patterns.svg.h (on both files make die) from POTFILES.in,
I get updated POT without translatable filters messages.
I'll appreciate some help.
TIA

context strings
by Kris De Gussem
Dear all
I just had a second look over some translations in Dutch.
I noticed that when translating a message with a context string (the
part before |), the comments do not always give the same instruction.
For example, you have:
#. TRANSLATORS: only translate "string" in "context|string".
#. For more details, see
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/glib/glib-I18N.html#Q-:CAPS
#: ../src/dialogs/clonetiler.cpp:2649
msgid "clonetiler|H"
#: ../src/ui/dialog/inkscape-preferences.cpp:1116
msgid "filesystem|Path:"
#. TRANSLATORS: This is a context string, only put the word "Normal"
in your translation
#: ../src/filter-enums.cpp:52
msgid "filterBlendMode|Normal"
So following the instructions, it seems that in the first case the
context string needs to be put in the translated message. In the
second example, you seem to have the choice, and in the third example
the context string must not be put in the translated message. This
seems weird to me.
Is there a reason why there is a difference in the instructions or do
we need to put the context string everywhere in the translated
messages?
Kind regards

using ./generate_POTFILES.sh
by Alexandre Prokoudine
Hi,
Whoever updates POTFILES.in using ./generate_POTFILES.sh please stop
doing this. You are not doing everyone a favour. We moved a number of
messages that translators should not see while working on 0.47
translation to POTFILES.ignore, because some features will be missing
in this release. I'll restore the previous version immediately. Then
someone else will have to recreate inkscape.pot using 'make
inkscape.pot' in po directory after successful compilation, because
Inkscape doesn't compile on this box for me.
