Often (but not always) when selecting some text within a message (in either the preview pane or the message in its own window), right clicking it and clicking "Translate...", the selection is not translated. Changing the language to a specific one or to "Detect language" and then clicking the Translate button likely has no effect at this point. Sometimes the translate function works, but I cannot find any recognizable pattern as to when it does/doesn't work. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Select text within a message to translate 2. Right click the selection and then click "Translate..." 3. Ensure the appropriate language is selected from the dropdown Actual Results: Often the selection is not translated Expected Results: The selection is always translated
paste text which doesn't work and le 'to language" -> "from language" please
I tried the following text: "Met dank voor de meer dan prettige samenwerking" with "from language" being "Detect language" and "to language" being English. When selecting Dutch as the "from language" specifically just now, it correctly translated the text. Often nothing happens. I just tried another (longer) chunk of text with the "from language" on Dutch and the "to language" English. It didn't translate. When selecting "Detect language" as the "from language", it correctly translated it.
I need test case which doesn't work :) Otherwise I can't debug it. I need exact text which doesn't work :)
Both didn't work on the first attempt of selecting text and clicking "Translate...". They worked only when I changed the language and clicked "Translate" again.
4.10.5 is very old. in 4.11 it worked better and in 4.12 I rewrite and debug all Please retest with last version
The same problem occurs with 4.11.2. It could be the Kubuntu packages, though. It's never worked properly for me.
