Also, the default add-in functions (from module scaddins) currently
deliver only localized names. They would have to be changed, too.
What do you mean by that? Are the names of add-in functions written in
their localised form into the XML files or in Excel files? Or are they
processed different way by the compiler? I did not inspect this part as
add-in function names are not localised in Hungarian Excel, but it may
be important for other languages.
In our own files, they are saved with their full UNO service names. In
Excel files, compatibility names are used, which in fact are
language-dependent but not included in the normal translation, because
the complete set has to be available for import. We currently have these
names in English and German, lists for other languages are welcome.
Another issue is that a setting to display localized function names
wouldn't work as expected for those languages that don't have localized
names.
If we used a checkbox e.g.
[ ] Use English function names
instead of
[x] Use localized function names
Yes, that might already be enough to avoid confusion. It would still
seem strange in an English version, though.
then it would be probably less confusing. Another idea that came into my
mind: what if we controlled this behaviour through an environment
variable and had a line in the readme or in the help which explained it?
Advantages: no UI change, less options presented to the inexperienced
users, less people involved in the process.
No, let's not distribute settings across environment variables,
configuration settings, whatever. The configuration is where it belongs.
