Description clcevboxvjeo 2005-10-17 11:47:10 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.92)
Installed from:    Unlisted Binary Package
OS:                Linux

Open Window decorations module in Control center. There's a '?' icon which displays a bubble with help. The second line from bottom says Use the "Whats this"...

IMO it should be "What's this"

I can't find the string you're referring to. Can you describe more fully where it is?

Comment 2 clcevboxvjeo 2005-12-17 14:17:36 UTC

Ok, the icon and the text i'm referrring to is at more places. Open kcontrol - appearance & themes - background. In top right corner there is blue '?' icon. Click on it and there is bubble help. Watch the second line from bottom.
It is in kde 3.5, not in 3.4.

I have found these - I can add them to my list for next week's typo fixes:

./messages/kdebase/kcontrol.po:"<p>Use the \"Whats This\" (Shift+F1) to get 
help on specific options.</p>"
./messages/kdebase/kcontrol.po:"<p>Use the \"Whats This\" (Shift+F1) to get

Comment 4 Malcolm Hunter 2005-12-18 00:59:37 UTC

I should have scanned po templates. This is the correct list:

./messages/kdebase/kcontrol.pot:"<p>Use the \"Whats This\" (Shift+F1) to get help on specific "
./messages/kdebase/kcmkonq.pot:"Use the \"Whats This?\" (Shift+F1) to get help on specific options."
./messages/kdebase/kcmkonq.pot:"Use the \"Whats This?\" (Shift+F1) to get help on specific options."
./messages/kdewebdev/quanta.pot:msgid "See 'Whats this\" for available variables"

./docmessages/koffice/kword.pot:msgid "Whats This?"
./docmessages/kdegames/kspaceduel.pot:msgid "Whats This Help"
./docmessages/kdegames/kbackgammon.pot:msgid "Whats This Help"
./docmessages/kdeutils/KRegExpEditor.pot:"drawing program. The second Toolbar contains the <emphasis>whats this</emphasis> "

Malcom: so will you do it before 29th December?

Comment 6 Malcolm Hunter 2005-12-28 02:42:09 UTC

I've done the GUI fixes in stable. Doing a more extensive search, I have identified 43 of the 65 instances in docs that need fixing. Is it feasible to create an entity for these?

Comment 7 Lauri Watts 2005-12-28 19:37:26 UTC

I would say in the branch probably not, or at least not without caution, because we can't use it in edu/extragear/pim/or anything else that wants to be 3.4 compatible, and in trunk: definitely yes.

Comment 8 Rich Johnson 2007-07-30 00:16:06 UTC

It seems this has all been taken care of. I have gone through the documentation and none of the "Whats" are there, and the "What's This" has  been fixed in everything KControl that I have seen. If this issue is still present, then I urge you to go ahead and reopen this report. Thanks!
