Hi all,
I've nearly finished localising Inkscape for Australian English (99% completed!) and have some questions.
Where would be the best place to report issues with strings (such as typos)? Should I send a list of issues here or is there another place where I should report issues?
Also, I have some specific questions about some of the strings I've encountered:
1. From what I can understand, these strings in /src/extension/internal/png-output.cpp refer to colour modes - I'm not sure if it's alright to localise these as shown below or whether I should keep them as-is since these appear to be names of colour modes - thoughts?
2. Regarding these strings in /src/actions/actions-object-align.cpp, the terms inside the square brackets appear to be parameters - just confirming that this is indeed the case and that there is no need to localise those terms?
3. I've seen the word "texts" used in a few strings - are these intentional or grammatical errors?
For most texts, there is support for exporting as (editable) TextBlock / Span elements for WPF Canvas mode. Texts are always converted to path in DrawingGroup mode or when targeting Avalonia.
(/share/extensions/other/extension-xaml/inkxaml/svg2xaml.inx)
Convert texts to paths
(/src/extension/internal/emf-inout.cpp and /src/extension/internal/wmf-inout.cpp)
This extension allows you to install, update and remove auto-texts for a JessyInk presentation. Please see code.google.com/p/jessyink for more details.
(/share/extensions/jessyink_autotexts.inx)
4. In this string, are the possible anchors and alignments parameters (and thus is there no need to localise these as well)?
Enter anchor<space>alignment<space>optional second alignment. Possible anchors: last, first, biggest, smallest, page, drawing, selection, pref; possible alignments: left, hcenter, right, top, vcenter, bottom.
(/src/actions/actions-object-align.cpp)
5. These strings use the past-tense terms "unlocked", "unhid", "locked", "unlocked" - is this intentional or should they be corrected to "unlock", "unhide", "lock" and "unlock"?
(/src/actions/actions-hide-lock.cpp:)
(/src/widgets/desktop-widget.cpp)
Thanks in advance!
