Description Christian Rose 2004-02-15 16:56:39 UTC 
A message in gnome-control-center has whitespace before a punctuation mark,
(i.e. dots, commas, colons, question marks).
This in contrast to what the rest of GNOME uses, and what's considered
appropriate in English writing, i.e. no spaces before punctuation (see bug
99430).

This message is affected:

#: capplets/font/font-properties.glade.h:14
msgid "R_esolution :"
Comment 1 Christian Rose 2004-02-15 17:13:23 UTC 
This is also the case for this message:


#: gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-accessibility-keyboard.c:413
#: gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-accessibility-keyboard.c:428
msgid "Do you want to deactivate Sticky Keys ?"
Comment 2 Jody Goldberg 2004-02-16 17:49:31 UTC 
Fixed, and all translations patched to correspond to the change.
However fixing it turned up an incorrect string.  There was a
cut-n-paste error that uses the same string in two places.  That will
need to be translated.
