Description dismark 2018-03-16 10:14:37 UTC

When you enter "split" :
To close 'split' it is always written 'split' instead of 'close split'.
This occurs in French translation ; I don't know in other languages.

In french : lorsqu'on clique sur 'scinder' puis que l'on veut fermer la fenêtre, on a toujours 'scinder' au lieu de 'fermer'.

Comment 1 Kai Uwe Broulik 2018-03-16 13:57:38 UTC

Can't reproduce with git master, properly says "Scinder" and "Fermer", can you try running it with LANGUAGE=en_US and see if "Split" and "Close" work there?

Comment 2 dismark 2018-03-16 16:55:09 UTC

I have tried with English language : We have "Split" and "Split" (but not "Close")

Comment 3 Nate Graham 2018-03-21 14:21:36 UTC

Confirmed in git master: "The button still says "Split" when it should say "Close Split"

Comment 4 Marco Martin 2018-03-21 14:25:07 UTC

here with master i have Split and Close

Comment 5 Edward Viesel 2018-05-28 08:22:22 UTC

In the German version of Dolphin 17.12.3 (Kubuntu 18.04) the bug is present:

Both instances have "Teilen" (split!), where it should be "Schließen" (or something similar) when the split view is activiated.

Comment 6 Edward Viesel 2018-07-12 12:27:15 UTC

I might have something to do with multiple upgrading over the years. My laptop with one upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04 correctly says "Teilen" (split) and "Schließen" (close). My PC with multiple upgrades of all kinds (from one version to the next; then, the latest, from 16.04 to 18.04) displays this bug with both states showing a button "Teilen" (split) when it should be "Schließen" in double-window mode.

Comment 7 Edward Viesel 2018-07-12 12:29:09 UTC

... sorry, this is for KDE: so 16.04 and 18.04 are, of course, Kubuntu versions.

Comment 8 Christoph Feck 2018-08-02 17:36:33 UTC

I also see 'Split' and 'Close' as toolbar and menuitem texts. Tooltips change accordingly, too. Dolphin master and no translations installed.

Comment 9 hyiltiz 2020-06-02 02:52:29 UTC

I see this is fixed at least by Dolphin 19.08.1, shipped with Debian Testing. For old systems, either consider installing through backports, or upgrading to a later version.
