Website: two small updates, Victor: permissions granted

Hi again, yesterday's new pages are now linked from other pages, so they can be found more easily by someone who is interested in the topic: FAQ: https://inkscape.org/en/learn/faq/#Can_Inkscape_create_animations? Diff-Screenshot: FAQ.png Contribute: inkscape.org/en/contribute/ Diff-Screenshot: Contribute.png Thanks again - and Victor: welcome to the website translation team! Your new account has translator permissions now. Please talk to Duarte about pages requiring your attention :) (I can think of the new ones from yesterday, the additions mentioned in this mail, and the FAQ, that has changed quite a lot since it has been translated to Portuguese. FAQ is more difficult from the technical side, though - needs copying of all plugins from English, and then careful selection of old text and translation of the new. Never insert links by copy-paste!) A Brazilian-Portuguese language version of the website will still take a while, the website development is going on. Regards + happy translating, Maren

Website: Summer updates :)
by Maren Hachmann 22 Jul '15

22 Jul '15

Hi everyone, we've got two new pages on our website! 1.) https://inkscape.org/en/learn/animation/ - Brynn had the idea to create this page, as people often ask about animation on forums etc. - especially, as there had been intentions to add animation features to Inkscape earlier on. This page is quite long, but maybe you also find something interesting for you there while translating! I liked trying out and looking at all those options while helping with the creation of the page. 2.) https://inkscape.org/en/contribute/to-do-list/ - We've got a 'job wall' on the website now. You do not need to translate the job descriptions - all jobs require that the person who does them speaks English very well, and they may change frequently (at least we hope so!). Just translate the introductory text - it's short! If you happen to be able to do one of the jobs mentioned, please consider helping Inkscape with it! I have also added a request for translators for the new introductory manual by jazzynico and jemanyalisa - I hope this will help them get traction! @Elisa: that other document you mentioned, should that be added to the list too? Can you give me a link? Thank you everyone for your work on the website - and enjoy summer, if you happen to be on the northern half of the globe! Kind regards, Maren

Raise and lower

Right now in the Layer and Object menu we have this: Layer: "Raise Layer" "Lower Layer" "Layer to Top" "Layer to Bottom" Object: "Raise" "Lower" "Raise to Top" "Lower to Bottom" Wouldn't it be better to call them the same in both menus: "Raise" "Lower" "Raise to Top" "Lower to Bottom"

Language file availability

Are the language files not available on some website so i can for example quickly view the german translation file without having to download the full Inkscape source and unpacking it locally?

Update Windows installer translation wiki info
by scootergrisen 03 Jul '15

03 Jul '15

The info om http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Interface_translation#Windows_insta… seems not to match the content of the translation files. I dont see this in the translation file: !insertmacro MUI_LANGUAGE "English" ${LANG_ENGLISH} Also the part that says: "Change header information in yourlanguage.nsh file, like "windows code page" and "Authors" to proper values." I would suggest to add link for "windows code page" so people can find what code to use for theyr language.

Re: [Inkscape-translator] Website: News article and updates

Hi everyone, you guys are great :) - Thanks! Victor, I'm afraid you translated the page on staging.inkscape.org... :( We'll have to transfer your translations to the live website. Duarte, do you think you could help with this? I couldn't find your account at inkscape.org, Victor, to give you translators' permissions - what is your username? And you're right, translating is a lot of work, that's why we are so happy to have you to support Duarte ;) - even if the languages aren't exactly the same, it's a great thing if some of the work can be shared. (Anybody here wants to translate the German developer pages, maybe? ;) ) As the web site editor isn't always intuitive in its usage, I'd like to give some hints for inserting links (I think this isn't yet very well described in the document on our Wiki - I'll update that soon with some pictures as well): For links, whereever possible, please everyone use the Link plugins. In the editor, there is a dropdown on the top left. The thing is that internal links (from one page at inkscape.org to another one) will be adapted automatically, if, for example, a page is moved or renamed. So if you link to the 'About' page, for example, and someone moves that page to another menu section, your link will not need to be updated. It's a little more work now, but it will save us work later. They also do not need to be adapted for the language, this is done automatically. So to insert an internal link, do the following: - Write the word(s) you want to use as text for the link. - Mark them. - Use the dropdown for plugins, select 'Link' - Fill in all info (use the dropdown for internal links) - Save To edit a 'plugin link', just doubleclick on it. What will not work with plugin links: - Copying a plugin link to use it more than once (it lives in the database, and only can exist once, and also only in the text block where it was created) - Editing the text of a plugin link in the editor window directly. As I said, not intuitive... To get contents from the English pages to your own language's page, use the dropdown at the top ('language') and select 'Copy all plugins from English'. This will make duplicates of all plugins (a different entry in the database), they can be edited by double-clicking on them. Long read, sorry! Thanks for all your hard work, Kind regards, Maren
