SUMMARY In the "Energy Information" section, the current charge has the label "current". This is a bit misleading, because the word "current" also has the meaning of "electric current", which is not what this number is about. I suggest renaming the label to "Current charge". STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open KInfocenter 2. Go to the energy information tab OBSERVED RESULT The current charge has the label "current", leading to confusion with electric current. EXPECTED RESULT The label is not ambiguous. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: n/a macOS: n/a Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.54.0 Qt Version: 5.11.3 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION This can also be seen in more recent versions, the issue is also basically the same in French, but not in German. I do not know about other languages.
Agreed. This looks like an easy fix, would you like to give it a go? :)
(In reply to Kai Uwe Broulik from comment #1) > Agreed. This looks like an easy fix, would you like to give it a go? :) Sure, but it's exam period and I am not very familiar with the KDE development process yet, so expect it to take a week or two,
I'd be happy to help! First set up your development environment as detailed here: https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/development The relevant code is in the kinfocenter repo, and you can find the file in question by grepping for the string itself (\"Current\"). Once you've found the string and changed it in the git repo, you can submit a patch. Here's the documentation for how to do that: https://community.kde.org/Infrastructure/Phabricator Let me know if you need a hand! Just email me. The process might seem tedious and scary, but hopefully it's not so bad, and there's plenty of help if you get stuck.
