Version: 4.5 (using KDE 4.5.2) OS: Linux Open the Kicker menu, switch to the Leave tab, move the mouse onto "Lock Screen", and you'll see a description: "Lock Screen"; then move the mouse onto "Restart Computer", and you'll see a description: "Restart computer". So why is the first description uses a capitalized "Screen" while the second uses a lowercased "computer"? Such inconsistency in writing style makes KDE seem unprofessional. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: See above. Actual Results: See above. Expected Results: See above.
Correction: "Restart Computer" has a description "Restart Computer" which is consistent with "Lock Screen" in style; "Log Out" has a description "End session" which is inconsistent with "Lock Screen" as "session" is all lowercased.
i am using kde-4.5.4 and the issue has been solved. now all these menu items have right description.
The bug is not fixed. In KDE 4.6.0 (Fedora 15 Alpha KDE Live CD), Kicker's Leave tab has these menu items and their respective descriptions: Log out | End session Lock | Lock Screen Switch User | Start a parallel session as a different user Sleep | Suspend to RAM Restart | Restart Computer Shut down | Turn off computer As seen above, even two menu items "Log out" and "Switch User" have different capitalization styles (the former uses an all-lowercased "out" while the latter uses a capitalized "User"). Also, descriptions use different capitalization styles. I understand that in such a large project as KDE there are many contributors who may have different editorial styles and we must tolerate it to some degree. But considering the Kicker menu is such a prominent and frequently used object, shouldn't we pay extra attention to its editorial style?
