What does "ABCs" mean
by Arpad Biro
Hi,
Can anyone tell what "ABCs" means?
(It's the name of a submenu in the Filters menu.)

What does "Compatibility with previews code to this event" mean
by Arpad Biro
Hi,
In Extensions/Web/JavaScript we have two extensions, both
displaying the following string:
"Compatibility with previews code to this event"
Does anyone know what this should mean? (Or should
"previews" really be "previous", meaning that this is a typo?)

How to see "Ref" in GUI? (/src/dialogs/item-properties.cpp:317)
As I understand from sources I should see it opening properties of
clonned object. But I always see Id/Label/Description/etc whether I
select cloned or not clonned object or object's clone.
sp_item_widget_setup ( SPWidget *spw, Inkscape::Selection *selection )
...
if (SP_OBJECT_IS_CLONED (item)) {
/* ID */
...
gtk_label_set_text (GTK_LABEL (w), _("Ref"));
...
/* Label */
...
gtk_label_set_text (GTK_LABEL (w), _("Ref"));
} else {
...
/* ID */
...
gtk_label_set_markup_with_mnemonic (GTK_LABEL (w), _("_Id"));
...
/* Label */
...
/* Title */
...
/* Description */
etc

Re: [Inkscape-translator] Hebrew translation update
by JimmyVolatile
Excellent. Thank you Yaron.
Especially your final paragraph is of great consolation to me.
"The more advanced users prefer the English interface beacuse most of the
technical terms are hard to understand in Hebrew and also it is less likely
you'll find an answer to your problems by googling your error messages (in
Hebrew)"
The reason I'm asking is that I'm currently tasked with creating an
international GUI Design guideline for our range of applications here at
work but I can not find any good sources on the actual usage of RTL
interfaces so I'm simply asking everyone/everywhere about how much mirrored
GUIs are actually used. (I know it's low-tech research ;) ) Our
applications are geared towards technical users so I guess our (potential)
users would go for an English interface anyway.
Furthermore I'd like to work on Inkscape UI in the future and if I know that
there are many non-professional users I'd take greater care in making
unidirectional icons and such (not use left-right arrows etc.)
Thanks, again.
Kind regards,
Jarl Arntzen
