.fl files store the widget's type in plaintext. For example, in a Fl_Browser
definition, there is a "type Hold" text.
Where does that 'Hold' string come from? Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems
that it's the same name shown in Fluid's widget subtype selection box.
Well, here is the problem: I installed fltk in ubuntu, spanish version, from
the ubuntu repositories (version 1.1.7), and most thing works, except that
Fl_Browsers are non-selectable, sliders are shown as plain boxes, and so on.
Checking the .fl file generated, and comparing it with a previous .fl file I
had stored, the type strings are in spanish, too, so they are ignored when
creating the .cxx/.h files.
For example, the old .fl file had a 'Hold' browser, but that subtype isn't
recognized by the spanish version of Fluid, so when opening that file and
saving it, 'Hold' was replaced by 'No seleccionar' (the default). To make it
work, I had to select 'Mantener' ('Hold').
I just downloaded/compiled/instaled Fluid from this site and problem solved
(for me).
Now, this is Ubuntu's fault for breaking the package, but what can they do? Are
the subtype strings (and maybe others), that are shown in Fluid's gui,
hard-coded and can't be changed without breaking compatibility, thus rendering
Fluid untranslatable?
