Description Christoph Feck 2011-11-12 14:47:31 UTC
When starting kwrite with "de" locale, then the editor settings dialog becomes very wide, because the import/export buttons have a too long translation:

    English: Export HlColors...
    German:  Farben für Hervorhebung exportieren ...

Together with the long translations in the combo box next to the buttons, this makes the window have a geometry of 1176x527 pixels.
Comment 1 Frederik Schwarzer 2011-11-14 17:29:10 UTC
Hmm, the only way I see to make this shorter is "Hervorhebungsfarben exportieren ..." Doing something like "HlColors" just to keep it short is a no-go here. Unless someone falls in love with "Hvhbg-Farben" ... ;)

I shortened the longest entries in the Languages drop-down box a bit as well.

This is to be considered a rather dirty workaround though. The dialog is obviously too crammed to even put proper English terms in there. Other translations might have the same problem.
