FWIW, here's a sample .hrc comment intended for translators: https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/cui/inc/strings.hrc?r=c007449ec38f49e18ed7d6b8f9ef74c5bd5c015a#320 Which gettext is supposed to extract and make available in the output .po files that translating works from. While in the .ui files, in glade there is a "Comments for translators" option when editing a translatable string which will add the appropriate "comments" attribute into the .ui If translators have had to painfully figure out something about a translation it might be worth considering submitting patches to put that info back into the source .hrc/.ui as comments. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: l10n+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/l10n/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
