Call for translations for Inkscape 1.1.2 (bug fix release, stable branch)
by Maren Hachmann 02 Feb '22

02 Feb '22

Hello Inkscape translators! This is the official call for translations for the upcoming Inkscape 1.1.2 , which is planned to be released in early February. 1.1.2 is expected to be the last in the 1.1.x series of Inkscape, and it is bugfix release, so the number of updated strings is small. If you'd like to contribute to 1.1.2 translations, please coordinate with everyone in your language's translation team, and get the latest po and pot files from https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/jobs/artifacts/1.1.x/download?job=tr… Further information is available from https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/Translation_information and https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/Interface_translation -------- If you are a translator for any of the languages below, please also check your 1.1.x branch po file for errors – either using the translation tool of your choice, or by compiling it to a mo file on your computer and reading the output – as they contain formatting errors and / or do not properly indicate the language they are for (default value is still set): as, az, doi, en_AU, en_CA, eo, es_MX, fa, hy, kok@latin, ks@aran, mk, ml, mni@beng, mni, mr, or, sat@deva, sat, sd@deva, sd, ur, ta --------- Inkscape 1.2 (currently still the same as the master branch) is approaching its alpha stage. Translations for 1.2 are already accepted, but it is expected that especially the newly added strings will still change until the release. –––––––––– Happy translating! Maren

Thank you, dmtrs (Dimitrios?)! Could you update your file with a recent pot file, please? You've been working on a very outdated version. See https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/Interface_translation#2._Get_the_file to find a link where to get the latest pot file for updating it (to not lose your work) and https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/Translation_information#Update_a_translation… to learn how to update your translation file. Instead of the described msgmerge, you can also check whether your translation software supports updating from a pot file. Most do! Note that the current focus is on the upcoming 1.1.2 release, not yet on 1.2, which doesn't meant that you can't work on it, but just keep in mind that we expect newly added strings to still change.

where can I get the 1.1.2 for testing ? (for Windows) (was: Re: Call for translations for Inkscape 1.1.2 (bug fix release, stable branch))
by Cristian Secară 18 Jan '22

<subj.> The .pot file from https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/jobs/artifacts/1.1.x/download?job=tr… seems indeed to be from 1.1.2, because there are just a few strings different than for 1.1.1. But how do I get the development 1.1.2 for testing ? The "Latest Development Version" from the web site download menu & page is for version 1.2. I need this in order to check quickly some of my translated strings. ?? Cristi -- Cristian Secară https://www.secarica.ro

Polish translation for 1.1.2
by Rafał Siejakowski 16 Jan '22

16 Jan '22

Hi everybody, I was wondering if anyone is working/interested in working on an updated Polish translation for 1.1.2. I saw a few issues with the current translation, so it would be a good idea to use this opportunity to fix them as well. If anyone is interested, please let me know so that we can coordinate the work. Pozdrowienia! Rafał

where is the «msgid "New Document"» in master ?
by Cristian Secară 13 Jan '22

13 Jan '22

When starting Inkscape with the welcome screen, on the bottom of 'Time to Draw' tab there is a big 'New Document' button. In the inkscape.pot file from 1.1.1 this string looks like this: ... #: ../share/ui/inkscape-start.glade:2164 msgid "Show this every time" msgstr "" #: ../share/ui/inkscape-start.glade:2180 msgid "New Document" msgstr "" #: ../share/ui/inkscape-start.glade:2211 msgid "Time to Draw" msgstr "" ... However, in the inkscape.pot file from master [1] this string no longer exists. If I use this template to update my existing translation from 1.1.1. and use this updated translation with the latest build of the 'master' branch, then the button fallback in English; instead, if I use the translation from 1.1.1 "as is" with that same 'master' branch (i.e. file not updated), then the button shows translated. What is wrong here ? The latest 'master' location is not this one ? I even pulled a merge request for master based on this location/template, but if I looked in the wrong place, then I have to review my merge request.

a few already translated strings does not show translated
by Cristian Secară 09 Jan '22

Create a shape – say, a rectangle – then select the shape. By pressing Ctrl or Shift or Alt, for each a different explanatory string is displayed on program status bar, but all those strings are English only. I checked with German, French and Italian, no difference. I'm on WIndows 10, the Inkscape About says 'Inkscape 1.1.1 (3bf5ae0d25, 2021-09-20)'. ?? Cristi -- Cristian Secară https://www.secarica.ro
