two whitespaces: "the  fields"

and i have big problems with all the "item" occurrences. i wonder if i can translate it like "element", or if you sometimes refer to a button in the toolbar.

That's a typo. It should be a (python) module in both cases. Fixed.

They are for a notebook tab. I've added comments for the translators.

This is the main (not the footer, not the header) part of a report. 
I don't know how to add a translator comment in glade - I don't even see the translatable bool in glade-3 now.

Feel free to fix that in svn, but note that you shouldn't open and save the actual .glade file because glade-2 and glade-3 both currently destroy unrelated parts of our .glade files. I use glade on a copy and then past the resulting xml.

An action verb - it checks a python script for errors. It's a button.

Renamed to "Add Related Records", though it really adds a "portal" widget that can contain related records. (It's part of UI layout editing.)

Yes. It's the From part of a relationship between two tables.

It's as in a GtkNotebook. Comment added.

There is already this comment:
"
#. A special "None" item, allowing the user to do the equivalent of clearing the combobox,
#. which is not normally possible with the GtkComboBox UI:
"

So it means "nothing is selected". Feel free to commit a clearer comment.

Fixed.

It generally means a "layout item", such as a field, button, image, group, notebook, etc, while defining the UI layout.

Thanks.

you can add comments by adding a »comments=""« param, i've done that and committed it as revision 1286. closing as fixed.
