Change user-visible occurrences of 'sidebar' to 'side pane' (1.40 KB, patch)

Description Reinout van Schouwen 2004-01-12 23:24:54 UTC
#: libnautilus-private/apps_nautilus_preferences.schemas.in.h:60
msgid "Only show folders in the tree sidebar"

Does this mean that folders should only be shown in the tree sidebar, or
does this mean that the tree sidebar should show folders exclusively? 

Please clarify the string or add a translator hint.

#: ../libnautilus-private/apps_nautilus_preferences.schemas.in.h:34
msgid ""
"If set to true, Nautilus will only show folders in the tree side pane. "
"Otherwise it will show both folders and files."

Apparently this clarifies the confusion, but, there's an inconsistency in usage
of the term 'sidebar' and 'side pane'.
Comment 2 Christian Neumair 2005-11-30 18:53:37 UTC
Reinout: Maybe you could come up with a patch that changes all occurences of
"side pane" to "sidebar", and submit it to nautilus-list? :)
Comment 3 Christian Neumair 2005-12-18 17:38:29 UTC
Reinout, are you willing to take this one?
Comment 4 Reinout van Schouwen 2005-12-18 20:17:49 UTC
Very sorry but I'm caught up in writing a masters' thesis, finding out how to do this would take too much time for me right now I'm afraid. :-/

Vista called. It wants its terminology back.

gnome had side panels, floating panels and other kind of panels before Microsoft invented Internet, sudo and enhanced user experience. Why do you want to change that?
Comment 8 Reinout van Schouwen 2007-08-08 22:11:24 UTC
I don't know or care about Vista or its terminology.

Nautilus uses two terms referring to the same thing inconsistently, namely sidebar and side pane. That's what this bug is about.

Change user-visible occurrences of 'sidebar' to 'side pane'

Based on the discussion here: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/nautilus-list/2007-August/msg00001.html

this patch changes user-visible occurrences of 'sidebar' to 'side pane'. In the actual code there remain a lot of references to 'sidebar'.
