Hi! I'm assigning ubuntu-translations. I can confirm at least some of the truncated text on Kubuntu Precise Beta. This issue should be looked at. ** Also affects: ubuntu-translations Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/462993 Title: German strings too long on user information in Kubuntu installer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-translations/+bug/462993/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 462993] Re: German strings too long on user information in Kubuntu installer
Is it possible to get shorter translations? Also... does hovering over the text show the entire string? Would it be better if I made it do that? ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Roman Shtylman (shtylman) -- German strings too long on user information in Kubuntu installer https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/462993 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 462993] Re: German strings too long on user information in Kubuntu installer
Maybe consider using line-breakage and shorten the translated text to the length of the English text? German translators tend to narrate, extensively describe and tell tales when it comes to labeling buttons, lists etc. instead of orienting on the length of the English text and use precise but short text. I know of users who didn't dare to install because they didn't know what the difference between the entries was. -- German strings too long on user information in Kubuntu installer https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/462993 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 462993] Re: German strings too long on user information in Kubuntu installer
Roman, Could you take a look at this, please? I suspect we can match the behavior of the GTK+ frontend and just make the text smaller, but I'll leave that decision to you.
