GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 554927
The dock window titles uses a non localizable comma
Last modified: 2010-03-13 11:15:39 UTC
I'm not sure if I'm using the prober GIMP terms, but tools window with multiple tools; say layers, paths and channels is set like this "layers, paths, channels" with the names properly translated but the comma is using an English one. Arabic uses a different comma and so the "separator" should be localizeable, probably with a translators note.

I've noticed it in several other places as well.
I think that should be addressed, but I am not sure how. How is this solved in other project? Should we make the string ", " translatable?
Making it translatable should suffice, I've seen several applications doing this for stuff like "," "%" and so.
Well, there we go: commit 35096957a9812c1e878e79613079f14b88b90086 Author: Martin Nordholts <martinn@src.gnome.org> Date: Sun Mar 7 12:48:26 2010 +0100 Bug 554927 - The dock window titles uses a non localizable comma Mark dockable separator characters used in the dock window title as translatable so e.g. Arabic can use an arabic comma.
For the record: commit 3352b0485c42c48824731feac75ed3d222ed8888 Author: Martin Nordholts <martinn@src.gnome.org> Date: Sat Mar 13 12:16:20 2010 +0100 app: Fix dockable separator translations Continued fix of bug 554927. Also translate the " - " string in the toolbox and add a "dock" translation context.
