Bug 67227: longer-than-in-English strings won't fit

#1

Hi all,

I found a regression caused by converting dialogs to the new Glade UI,
whereby strings that are considerably longer than their English originals,
are cut off at the end. On my setup, it affects Estonian, Finnish, French,
and sometimes German strings (and most likely others that I didn't test).

All this probably depends on font size, so could you see if this affects
your locale, too, and document your findings at
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67227 so the problem could be
fixed?

Best regards,
Mihkel

I´m using 4.0.x in Portuguese

The Portuguese strings are longer than English ones. But none of them are
cutted.

I will try it in 4.1 to check them.

I confirmed it for Slovenian and quoted some examples.

Did you tried with the last RC? I remember I reported this issue (that was on security options) and that was fixed. When I check in the RC3 FR I get currently I don't have strings truncated in the option dialogs you mention in the issue.
Kind regards
Sophie

Unfortunately, Sophie, I am using RC3 and have those issues.
If needed I can provide screenshots.

Now with 4.1.0 RC4 Portuguese (possibly PT-BR also)

My problems are:

Icon _size and style
Tamanho e e_stilo dos ícones

Use system _font for user interface

Utilizar letra do sistema para a inter_face do utilizador

*Options -> LibreOffice Calc -> View*

Grid lines

Linhas da ~grelha

*Options -> LibreOffice Writer -> Autocaption -> Caption*

Numbering separator

Separador de numeração

The first 2 examples are fine in 4.0. So yes it was introduced in 4.1

The remaining are also present in 4.0 and are not affected by 4.1 but still
need to get fixed.

Mihkel, can you please add the ones still non existent in bug report?
