You just add "Logulator" to the list of dummy_entries in menus.c that only exists for the purpose of adding those strings to the pot files. Salut, Sven

For people not having gimp-perl this just means an empty menu. For third-party plug-ins this means yet another difference between "built-in" plug-ins and themselves. If you say this is a bad but necessary workaround for 1.2, I would only agree if there is a large pressure. It is quite ugly to have superfluous menus around :( So, if at all possible, could some translation expert find a fix for this problem, and I'll just add Logulator to app/menus.c in the meantime. Or did I misunderstand the general plan for translation? I thought that would already have been fixed? > BTW: Is the word Logulator translatable? Obviously yes, otherwise we wouldn't now about the problem (the czech translation is different, it seems ;) But yes, since this is a synthesized word it should be easy to translate it to other languages (it only happens to be the same in german and english). -- -==- | ==-- _ | ---==---(_)__ __ __ Marc Lehmann +-- --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / [EMAIL PROTECTED] |e| -=/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ XX11-RIPE --+ The choice of a GNU generation | |

Of course, you only need to add the submenu name to menus.c, not all the Logulator scripts. Salut, Sven BTW: Is the word Logulator translatable?
menu translation again - how does it work?
I was alerted by Stanislav Brabec about a problem with menu translations. In his translation of Logulator to czech, he properly changed all occurences of "Logulator", but, while the gimp displays the menus _within_ the Filters/Logulator menu correctly, the Logulator menu itself NOT being translated. I admit that the time where I even remotely understood how translations is to be handled has long gone, thus: What do I (or the translators) to do so that menus get translated correctly, all of them, with all components? Stanislav told me to add Logulator to app/menus.c. This might be a palatable workaround for 1.2, but I would prefer a real fix ;-> -- -==- | ==-- _ | ---==---(_)__ __ __ Marc Lehmann +-- --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / [EMAIL PROTECTED] |e| -=/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ XX11-RIPE --+ The choice of a GNU generation | |
