Also, looking at current translations, I'm not the only one who didn't really understand this string - several teams have overlooked the space between "%PRODUCTNAME" and "</variable>", and a few have placed "%PRODUCTNAME" at an earlier position in the translation, giving (as far as I can tell) a semi-nonsensical end result... Bonus question: how is this specific composite string handled in case of RTL languages? It seems the string isn't yet translated into e.g. Arabic or Hebrew, so I couldn't check it myself. I separated the text from the version number, and apparently it is not a > solution. > > To fix, I'll have to repeat "This function is available since > %PRODUCTNAME " for every release number (20 times), as shown in the > source file: > > > https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/help/source/text/scalc/00/avail_release.xhp?r=c7e09719 > > to let translator place the version number where they want in the > sentence.
