Hi I want to help to translate Inkscape to Chinese Simplified. I have installed and compiled Inkscape on my laptop and joined the GNOME Translation Group for Chinese. From the wiki page, I found there are many things need to be translated. Can you give some suggestions about where I can start? Thanks a lot. Cheers, Jiabao

probably a bug in degree sign character representation
by Cristian Secară 11 Mar '13

11 Mar '13

The degree sign is mostly represented in HTML entity (°) instead of direct Unicode character (0x00B0, i.e. ˚), so in some menus it shows as HTML (for example in Object -> Rotate 90° etc.) I presume that all occurences should be changed back to Unicode. Related to this, I am not sure what is the part of the first variable here (and other similar strings): Curve segment: angle %3.2f°, distance % s; etc. Cristi -- Cristian Secară http://www.secarica.ro

where can I chack the ruler settings ?
by Cristian Secară 11 Mar '13

11 Mar '13

I just want to check some strings of my translation, like _Mark distance: Distance between successive ruler marks Ma_jor length: Length of major ruler marks etc. I know these strings are from the lpe-ruler.cpp file, but I want to view them in the application. Where is this dialog ? I don't know where to find it. Cristi -- Cristian Secară http://www.secarica.ro

missing string for translation, or I don't know to whom it belongs
by Cristian Secară 10 Mar '13

10 Mar '13

In Edit -> Input Devices... -> the current selected item is "Core Pointer" (in list and as title). Where from comes this string ? It does not appear to exist in the .pot file. I also checked at random in the gtk .mo files that are present in my GIMP install and it is not there either. I'm using one of the most recent development version (devel r12162), on Windows.

If the translation can be committed directly, then please update the Romanian translation with this one http://www.secarica.ro/traduceri/inkscape_0.48_lang_ro.7z If I should use the bug report method on Launchpad, then please let me know. Thank you, Cristi -- Cristian Secară http://www.secarica.ro

one line can have several midpoints ?
by Cristian Secară 27 Jan '13

27 Jan '13

I have this string #: ../src/widgets/toolbox.cpp:1817 msgid "Line Midpoints" I am not sure, but it sound strange to me that a line can have more than one midpoint. Is this ok ? Or perhaps it should be Lines Midpoints ? Or just Line Midpoint ? Cristi -- Cristian Secară http://www.secarica.ro

Doubts and typos translating strings from Gcode graffiti extension
by Lucas Vieites 17 Jan '13

17 Jan '13

Hi, I'm finishing the Spanish translation for the current 0.49 version and I'm having trouble with a couple of strings, especially from the Gcode extension: "Preview's paint emmit (pts/s):" I have no clue about this one; Google doesn't either ;-) There's also this one, which I think originally had some new lines: "This function creates path to engrave letters or any shape with sharp angles. Cutter's depth as a function of radius is defined by the tool. Depth may be any Python expression. For instance: cone....(45 degrees)......................: w cone....(height/diameter=10/3)..: 10*w/3 sphere..(radius r)...........................: math.sqrt(max(0,r**2-w**2)) ellipse.(minor axis r, major 4r).....: math.sqrt(max(0,r**2-w**2))*4" Here's a typo: "Sort paths to reduse rapid distance" => "*reduce" I hope someone can help me here...

cannot find some strings for translation
by Cristian Secară 13 Jan '13

13 Jan '13

There are some strings I want to translate but I don't know where to find them. The strings from http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev/inkscape/trunk/files/head:/po/ are very different than the stable 0.48.4 ? I tried also with a development version, "inkscape R10800" from oss-marketplace, but there was no difference. Example: - when opening Inkscape, I cannot find the the string from status bar "No objects selected. Click, Shift+click, or drag around objects to select." - when opening a .png file, a dialog will prompt for embedding or link to the file; the strings "embed" and "link" appears to be missing from my .po On the other hand, in bitmap export dialog there is "Bitmap size" which *is* translated in .po file (Export area = Zona de exportat) but appears in English, "Batch export all selected objects" is translated but with _ accelerator on B_atch, "Hide all except selected" also appears in English while in .po file is with accelerator on a_ll, Filename don't know where to find in .po (but it also appears it has an useless accelerator on F). ?? I am using the .pot file from this place http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev/inkscape/trunk/files Cristi -- Cristian Secară http://www.secarica.ro
