GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 318713
Use stock menus in procman
Last modified: 2011-11-11 10:03:55 UTC
#: ../src/interface.c:47 msgid "_File" #: ../src/interface.c:48 msgid "_Edit" #: ../src/interface.c:49 msgid "_View" #: ../src/interface.c:50 msgid "_Help" #: ../src/interface.c:52 msgid "_Quit" I beleive all of these menu names and many items are already translated in GTK+. Perhaps GTK+ stock menu names could be used; that would save translators some work.
i can't find anything about stock strings. I always thought it was ridiculous to translate these strings again and again. Do you have any link ?
I don't think there is a way to handle file, edit, view and help since those are the menus and there arwn't 'stock menu strings'. For 'quit' I think you simply set to NULL the label field In the GtkActionEntry array so that the stock icon label is used.
any news on this ? Now i'm temporarily 'leading' the French translation, i'm getting upset. This is a real problem because we spend our time translation stupid strings. And this makes GNOME apps inconsistent because sometime we use different accelerators in menu :/
No news sorry :( I guess this needs to be brought up upstream with gtk devs
ping. reassign to gtk+ ?
Created attachment 92843 [details] [review] modified menu items to use stock where possible One issue related to comment #3 is that the gtk stock menu entry for Help->Contents has text "Help" and shortcut "Ctrl-H", while most Gnome apps use "Contents" and "F1". :(
Sorry, i didn't saw that update in my inbox. I guess we are now blocked by freeze :/
*shrugs* it's not a particularly urgent patch :)
benoît: *ping*, patch! ...before we're getting into the next freeze (currently we're in announcement period)
This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report. Thanks for the reminder.
