All,

We have a new line we need translations for in MX Tweak. A new resource file has been uploaded to Transifex.

Thank you all!

Strange, cannot find strings like "Resolution", "Brightness" or "Choose Display"
It shows 122 Strings one untranslated.

Code: Select all

my fault, I hadn't merged the new string translations yet. I emailed roy and merged the new files.

All,

Everything should be good to go now. I will monitor this thread tomorrow to see if anyone has any further issues.

Translations came in today, should be good now!

From Wikipedia :

For device displays such as phones, tablets, monitors and televisions, the use of the word resolution as defined above is a misnomer, though common. The term display resolution is usually used to mean pixel dimensions, the number of pixels in each dimension (e.g. 1920 × 1080), which does not tell anything about the pixel density of the display on which the image is actually formed: resolution properly refers to the pixel density, the number of pixels per unit distance or area, not total number of pixels

I will choose Définition instead of Résolution in French translation.

The quoted Wikipedia text is probably correct to refer to pixel density of the display. OTOH, changing the pixel dimension for a given fixed screen size will change pixel density and by this the resolution for the given display dimension. Also note, the two other tools "Display" (Affichage) and Arandr for changing the pixel dimension do use the term "Résolution". So in this sense I suggest to stick with the same term "Résolution".

I will stick with resolution to ensure consistency but that's a misuse of language (the same for mass and weight by the way).

Posted: **Tue Dec 17, 2019 3:26 pm**

I would just use what people know. Even though it might not be correct, the other ways of describing just isn't clear enough anyway.

Posted: **Tue Dec 17, 2019 4:07 pm**

I'm part of the "people" and I use defintion instead of resolution because that's the right term.
Do you intend to call your

The resource file has been updated. There are 7 new strings that need translating.

Thanks everyone!

Thanks!

The strings 8 and 63 are both "Display". Guess they must have different meanings. Can someone please explain which one is "Screen""?
Henry

Posted: **Fri May 29, 2020 7:47 am**

I think they are both screen...the same word is used in two gui screens.

Posted: **Fri May 29, 2020 10:15 am**

Thanks. From other strings nearby, I thought the first one could maybe mean "display a result".

What is that slit thing, line 85?

Posted: **Sun Jul 05, 2020 6:31 am**

That's an fluxbox-specific term that should not be translated. (It refers to a location on the desktop where small applications can be anchored and is used for the docks)

Posted: **Sun Jul 05, 2020 6:44 am**

Owh.. didn't say that with it in there.

Will leave it as such and just copy it over.

Posted: **Sun Jul 05, 2020 7:50 am**

I don't know how to do that

Should it be removed from the resource file?

-Roy

Posted: **Sun Jul 05, 2020 11:32 am**

The word, yes, if there's no code such as <notrans> or something. But I have no experience with this sort of thing so have to rely on your judgment.

Bottom line: we don't want translators breaking their heads trying to figure out what to do with it.

Posted: **Sun Jul 05, 2020 11:34 am**

I can take it out easy enough

a slit being a long narrow opening, I think that's pretty much what the fluxbox guys meant when they named it (it might be dumb, but we didn't name it).

Posted: **Sun Jul 05, 2020 11:36 am**

It appears within the string in defaultlook.ui. I am not sure I am going to have a way to determine what you want translated and what you do not. So to be clear, you only want the word "(slit)" removed?

Posted: **Sun Jul 05, 2020 12:53 pm**

Dolphin Oracle has made a change to the line and the resource file has been updated. The new line will need translations.

Thanks!

it wasn't.

if you want to remove the "&" from the resource file its ok, but its not a new string. or at least shoudn't have been.

just let me know...and I'll change the version on the git repo to match.

Posted: **Sun Jul 12, 2020 1:19 pm**

I got it. I will delete it right now and re-upload.

Posted: **Tue Jul 21, 2020 10:19 pm**

A new resource file has been uploaded to Transifex. We have 6 more very short lines that should be pretty easy to translate. Please give a hand when you get a chance!

There is a new string in MX-Tweak, related to toggling apt to install "recommend" packages as dependencies.

Recommends are sort of "soft depends" that are not necessary for the application to run, but might bring some needed functions. Some packages are sloppy in their dependency callouts and won't work without the recommends installed (gnome-boxes, libvirt-manager, among others).

Debian installs recommends by default, but MX does not.

Posted: **Tue Nov 01, 2022 9:18 pm**

Debian installs recommends by default, but MX does not.

Basically, I think this is a good policy for users to keep the installed system simple.
The other day I was going to remove Thunderbird after installation of (full) Cinnamon Desktop, but I couldn't do it due to its dependency. The Cinnamon maintainer at Debian advised me that you should install "cinnamon-core" instead.

After almost two years of work, we are happy to announce the release of Xfce 4.18 ! Xfce 4.18 released

Since Xfce 4.16 a lot of major development happened. Our team added multiple nice new features, did a gazillion of bug fixes and did various minor improvements. Finally, all that is going to be released for your pleasure.

Posted: **Tue Jan 17, 2023 10:32 pm**

Two new strings added to mx-tweak to deal with some hidden features of thunar.

"Thunar windows always open in split view" forces thunar to always spawn windows with dual-pane already enabled.

"Thunar split view opens horizontal" forces the split view to be horizontal instead of the default vertical.

strings are up on transifex now.

https://www.transifex.com/anticapitalis ... /mx-tweak/

Thanks in advance!!!!

"Thunar windows always open in split view" forces thunar to always spawn windows with dual-pane already enabled.

"Thunar split view opens horizontal" forces the split view to be horizontal instead of the default vertical.

I just upgraded and those good additions must be on a tab that MX Fluxbox users don't see. Any interest in duplicating them on the "Fluxbox" tab they do see (even though it doesn't match the rest of the content)? Or something else?

Posted: **Wed Jan 18, 2023 6:39 am**

will look at it while waiting on translations.

Posted: **Wed Mar 29, 2023 8:30 pm**

New strings up for mx-tweak. this time dealing with allowing a quick change between the docklike (default on mx21) and the "window buttons" (mx19 and earlier) tasklist panel plugins.

thanks in advance!

Posted: **Wed Mar 29, 2023 9:21 pm**

Good addition, thanks.

Line 38 has one space too many, between Set Tasklist

Line 39 needs a capital d

Posted: **Thu Mar 30, 2023 5:33 am**

Dear Developers,

I know that Thunar is a proper name. It's the name of the XFCE file manager and I don't translate it into French.
But for Tasklist, I don't know what it is. Is it also the proper name of a program? It could be translated as a list of tasks but I don't know if it's right to do so.
As in English, all words are capitalized, it is not easy for translators to know if it is a common or proper name in other languages.

Thank you for your support.
Best regards,
Wallon

Posted: **Thu Mar 30, 2023 6:07 am**

Tasklist is not a proper name.

Dear developers,

Would you be so kind as to confirm that the "Super Key" corresponds to the key with a logo (with a penguin called "Tux" or the Microsoft Windows logo)?

Kind regards,
Wallon

Posted: **Sun Dec 10, 2023 6:30 am**

Yep.

I think I described it as such somewhere in the translator comments.

Posted: **Mon Dec 11, 2023 1:08 pm**

Hello dolphin_oracle.

I believe entry number 3 refers to the "Keywords" entry of the ".desktop" file:

xdelta,patch

So it should be separated by a semicolon and end with the semicolon " ; ":

xdelta;patch;

Please check this detail.

- - - - -

Olá, dolphin_oracle.

Eu acredito que a entrada número 3 refere-se a entrada "Keywords" do arquivo ".desktop":

xdelta,patch

Então deveria estar separada por ponto e vírgula e terminar com o ponto e vírgula " ; ":

xdelta;patch;

Por favor, verifique este detalhe.

pushing up mx-tweak string change for a new function for KDE to disable/enable plasma-discover tray utility autostart, if plasma-discover is installed.

***edit*** it might take a little while for the new string to show up.

Posted: **Wed Aug 14, 2024 8:51 am**

Hello, dolphin_oracle.

pushing up mx-tweak string change for a new function for KDE to disable/enable plasma-discover tray utility autostart, if plasma-discover is installed.

Thank you very much for this explanation. The automatic translation of the text of the sentence "Autostart plasma-discover system tray update notification utility" was incomprehensible and thanks to your explanation I was able to understand it correctly and build a coherent "pt_BR" text.

Please, when you use the latest translation of the "mx-tweak" resource, also use the latest translation of the "mx-tweak-desktop" resource. I have made new improvements to the translations of the "pt_BR" texts where I mention the original name of the program (in English) in the "Comment[pt_BR]" entry, in addition to new languages that have been translated, such as Dutch.

- - - - -

Olá, dolphin_oracle.

pushing up mx-tweak string change for a new function for KDE to disable/enable plasma-discover tray utility autostart, if plasma-discover is installed.

Muito obrigado por esta explicação. A tradução automática do texto da frase "Autostart plasma-discover system tray update notification utility" estava incompreensível e graças a sua explicação eu consegui compreender corretamente e construir um texto "pt_BR" coerente.

Por favor, quando você for utilizar a tradução mais recente do recurso "mx-tweak", utilize também a tradução mais recente do recurso "mx-tweak-desktop". Eu fiz novas melhorias das traduções dos textos "pt_BR" onde eu menciono o nome original do programa (em idioma inglês) na entrada "Comment[pt_BR]", além de novos idiomas que foram traduzidos, como por exemplo o idioma Holandês.

Muito obrigado!

the strings have comments. 1 checkbox, 1 tooltip.

Posted: **Thu Dec 12, 2024 7:43 am**

some strings updated, due to a spelling mistake in some tooltip text. My apologies to anyone that provided translations already.
