Hi all,
I am facing an issue with the translation of "Go To Next Table Formula"
function (assume it is for writer since the file reference is
WriterCommands.xcu#..WriterCommands.UserInterface.Commands..uno_GotoNextTableFormula.Label.value.text)
.
Anyone knows what it does?

Could not find any references in docs or on google.

Thank you

Sakis

PS

It looks like I am getting a number of errors while translating on-line. Is
there something I can do about it?

I just realized of a small concordance problem on the UI that arise by

use of variables and that it's not easily solvable, I think. For example,
this string

https://translate.apache.org/es/aoo40/translate.html#unit=13126953

is to translate "%1 selected". The text was translated as "%1 marcado",
which on Spanish is OK if %1 refers to a rectangle (m), but not to a line
(f): "line" should be "marcada". I think that Italian, French, Portuguese
and all other Latin derived languages have the same problem because
gender
is indicated by declinations at the end of the word.

The string I'm referring to here is not that important: it appears on the
left of Draw's status bar to indicate which kind of object was selected.
I
don't think that many people will see it (as a matter of facts, after all
these years I saw it only today), but it's a good example of a more
general
problem.

Is there something that can be done about this kind of problems (not now,
of course, on the long term)?

Since it is finite set of objects that can be selected, would one
solution be to simply define a string for each combination:

"line selected"
"rectangle selected"
"circle selected"
etc.

The problem is that the current mechanism is separating the noun from
its adjective, when they really need to be harmonized in many
languages.

It is possible to have a function, for instance A1+B1, in table cel C1 in Writer.

This will add the content of A1 and B1 as a sum in C1.

However, most tabelcells in Writer will probably be used by text as is.

Then again to find the next tableformula might be a problem, thus it is possible, in a table, to select Tableformula on the bar Navigation which will provide you with the option Go to next Tableformula. which then brings you to that formula.

You could serach the Help for Calculating Complex Formulas in Text Documents for instance, that should bring up a page with several links to other pages.
