To find translation in the UI

l10n
#1

Hi, all!
I've decided to deepen the translational process, so ask you:
is there an exact way to find the location of the word in the UI ?
I suggest the "context" area may help, but don't know HOW...

#2

The easiest way is to install the key-id version of Libreoffice.
Key-id versions exist for the alpha or beta versions of a release.
It is the file with qtz instead of the language in the name, like LibreOfficeDev_7.0.0.0.beta1_Win_x64_helppack_qtz.msi

You can find all the different versions of LibreOffice on http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

In this key-id version you will find codes before (almost) every UI-item.
You can search for this code in Weblate.
Choose the project and your language and click Search.
Search criteria is “note: vwxyz”. (vwxyz is the code you found for the UI-item)
This way you find your UI-item for translation.

I hope this is what you like to know.

Success, Kees

Thank you for the answer, Kees!
It seems very inspiring.
But I can't find a link to that version of LO. Could you share it with me?

Regards, Eugene.

The version Kees mentioned was just an example. You would not use an old beta version. Kees gave you the link to find all the released versions: http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

The directory listing is in ascending order, so just scroll down until you find the directory corresponding to the latest version.

Perhaps you want to look at the unreleased version instead. In this case, you would navigate to a place like https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/Win-x86_64@tb77-TDF/current/ install the main package and also LibreOfficeDev_7.1.0.0.alpha0_Win_x64_helppack_qtz.msi

LibreOfficeDev_7.1.0.0.alpha0_Win_x64_helppack_qtz.msi

If Eugene wants to translate the UI instead of the help documentation, this
is probably not a good idea.

As far as I know, the daily builds only include English UI, no other languages,
no KeyID.

Just tried reinstalling Win-x86_64@tb77-TDF master build and I am happy to say it includes KeyID as well as all the other languages.

Indeed it does. I stand corrected.

Sorry for the noise,

The link to the version page is http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/
And a example is the 7.0 Beta2 version at http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/7.0.0.0.beta2/win/x86_64/
Look for the qtz version at this page.
You can directly download this version with next link http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/7.0.0.0.beta2/win/x86_64/LibreOfficeDev_7.0.0.0.beta2_Win_x64_helppack_qtz.msi
