Translation proposal

Post by ouilogique » Sun Jul 25, 2021 1:11 pm

QCAD 3.26.4

1. When using the Detect Duplicates command (M, D), the following message translation is incorrect in French:

- Duplicate entities found: 1
- Dupliquer les entités trouvées : 1

It should be :

Nombre d’entités dupliquées : 1

2. By the way the english message

- Duplicate entities found

is difficult to translate for a robot, because it could not decide without the context which of these two possibilities to choose from:

- Dupliquer les entités trouvées (= Please, duplicate the entities now!)
- Entités dupliquées trouvées (= How many duplicates are in the drawing?)

So I suggest to change for:

- Duplicate entities count: 1
- Nombre d’entités dupliquées: 1

A collateral benefit of this change is that the text remains the same if there are duplicates or not. Only the count changes.
