Description Maciej Pilichowski 2008-12-15 15:56:30 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.1.3)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

move "switch application language" from "help" to "settings"

Because it has nothing (completely nothing) to do with help in any way -- it belongs to configuring application, thus settings.

Dear Bug Submitter,

This bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? I am setting the status to NEEDSINFO pending your response, please change the Status back to REPORTED when you respond.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!

Still relevant (and IMHO a worthwhile change) for KDE Frameworks 5.  Reassigned to KXmlGui product and marking as wishlist.

Move "Switch Application Language" to Settings menu

This is where it logically belongs. Applications with only a Help menu
and no settings menu will still get it displayed in there due to some
fancy code in khelpmenu.cpp, so there are no cases where the menu item
will become completely inaccessible.

Test Plan:
1. Open Okular, Konsole, or Dolphin with its menu bar shown
2. Look in Settings and Help menus to make sure the action is in the
   Settings menu

1. Open an app without a visible Settings menu such as Spectacle or
   Dolphin with its menubar hidden
2. Look in the help menu to make sure the action is shown there
FIXED-IN: 5.72
