New string for XnViewShellExt:

268=Recognize format by extension
269=Use original file date/time for saved files
270=Rotate
271=Convert
272=Use embedded thumbnail

171=The picture will be converted in 8 bits per component\nDo you want to continue?
172=This file contains more than one page/image, so it's not possible to rotate it.
173=This file uses a nonwritable format, so it's not possible to rotate it.
174=Associated program
175=Custom program
176=Save clipboard

[helmut]

Hmm, there's potential for improvement, I think:

- "Do you want to add this folder recursively?" -> "Do you want to add this folder and all its subfolders?"

- "Show GPS" -> "Show GPS data" / "Show GPS position" ?

- "Edit GPS" -> "Edit GPS data"

- "Show recursive" -> "Show recursively"

- "Open output folder in Windows" -> "Open output folder in Explorer" ("in" or rather "with"?)

- "Deskew auto." -> "Automatic De-skew"

- "Show infos" -> "Show info" / "Show information"

- "... nonwritable ..." --> "non-writable"


Other suggestions? Could native speakers please check?

[Skiff]

Hello, I have one question:

#define TXT_TemplateMenu_Size_Auto "Size auto"

Don't really know what does it means? After some testing I think that this shows file size in automatic unitx (b, B, KB, MB and so on) - is it correct?

One more:
#define TXT_Option_BottomUp "Bottom up" - with this one I have even trouble to find it in beta 1

[Dreamer]

What about this:

167=Rotate +90° >> Rotate 90° right
168=Rotate -90° >> Rotate 90° left

It would be clearer and more intuitive IMO.

Edit:

"INI used" it's not very intuitive, what about >> "Options file location (or path)"?

"Convert" should be >> "Convert into" - the same as in Shell Extension (it's in the browser context menu - Convert > JPEG, PNG...)

[helmut]

@Translators:
Some strings of the ShellExtension can be found in XnView (xnview_xx.h or string_xx.h), already. A similar or close wording should be used.

268=Recognize format by extension --> #define TXT_Option_Recognize_Only_Extension
269=Use original file date/time for saved files --> #define TXT_Option_Keep_Data
270=Rotate
271=Convert
272=Use embedded thumbnail --> #define TXT_Use_Embedded_Thumbnail
276=To open picture, use
165=Original format
166=Rotate
167=Rotate +90° --> #define TXT_Jpeg_Rotate_90_Degrees, TXT_NviewMenu_Rotate_Right
168=Rotate -90° --> #define TXT_Jpeg_Rotate_270_Degrees, TXT_NviewMenu_Rotate_Left
169=Rotate based on EXIF tag --> #define TXT_Jpeg_Rotate_EXIF, #define TXT_Option_EXIF_Rotate
170=JPEG lossless operation will modify original file(s), and may remove some unused pixels (width and height must be multiple of 8 pixels)!\nDo you want to continue? --> #define TXT_String_Ask_JPEG_Lossless_Rotation
171=The picture will be converted in 8 bits per component\nDo you want to continue? --> #define TXT_String_Rotation_Bits_Problem
172=This file contains more than one page/image, so it's not possible to rotate it.
173=This file uses a nonwritable format, so it's not possible to rotate it.
174=Associated program --> #define TXT_BrowseMenu_Associated_Program
175=Custom program
176=Save clipboard

[helmut]

@Skiff:
Good questions, I'll have to look were the strings are used myself. Perhaps someone can point us in the right direction.

EDIT:
"Bottom up" is used in Options > General > Read/Write > Write > TARGA. But don't ask me what it means...

#define TXT_TemplateMenu_Size_Auto "Size auto"
Don't really know what does it means? After some testing I think that this shows file size in automatic unitx (b, B, KB, MB and so on) - is it correct?

I think that's correct. "Size auto" is not very meaningful, what about "Size [Bytes/KB/MB/GB]" instead? The position in the menu should be changed, it should be
1 - Size
2 - Size [KB]
3 - Size [Bytes/KB/MB/GB]

@Dreamer:
+1 to all your suggestions.


XnView vs. XnView ShellExt
Both XnView and ShellExtension should use the same wording (see my previous post).
In XnView it currently says:
- "Rotate based on EXIF value".
- "Keep date/time for saving"
Either XnView or ShellExt should be modified.

[helmut]

Currently, in Options > Image View > Image View it says "Zoom step" and values are "Default", "Fixed step", and "Relative step".

I think the English should be changed to just "Default", "Fixed", and "Relative". Consequently, the narrow label "Zoom step" should be wider and the combobox with values more narrow.

[helmut]

What's the difference between De-Skew and De-Skew auto?

[Dreamer]

1 - Size
2 - Size [KB]
3 - Size [Bytes/KB/MB/GB]

Auto is used in many other programs, so perhaps it might be used, but together with Bytes/KB/MB/GB.

[helmut]

1 - Size
2 - Size [KB]
3 - Size [Bytes/KB/MB/GB]

Auto is used in many other programs, so perhaps it might be used, but together with Bytes/KB/MB/GB.

Hmm, perhaps:

1 - Size
2 - Size with fixed unit (KB)
3 - Size with variable unit (Bytes/KB/...)

[XnTriq]

"Bottom up" is used in Options > General > Read/Write > Write > TARGA. But don't ask me what it means...

Suggestions: Bottom-up checkbox option when saving in Targa (.tga) format

The Save as TGA window will appear. Make sure you uncheck the “RLE compression” and “Original at bottom left” options. Click on the “OK” button to continue.

• 

NOTE: By default, Premiere 4.2 for Windows writes header information in Targa files so the image's data flows from the top of the image to the bottom. To make Targa files compatible with applications that read the image's data from the bottom upward, you can set a switch in the Premiere Initialization (Prem32.ini) file.

Finally, the imageDesc field is a byte whose bits specify the number of attribute bits per pixel and the order in which pixel data is transferred from a file to the screen. For our purposes, we are interested in bits 4 and 5, which tell us how the image data needs to be rendered to the screen. Because we are using OpenGL and glDrawPixels(), we need to make sure the image data is stored in memory “upside-down.” Given the possible values for bits 4 and 5 in Table 6.5, this means that you need to make sure the image origin is located at the bottom left. Some image tools like to save the Targa with the origin at the top left, which means you need to flip the Targa image data vertically to get a proper rendering with glDrawPixels().

[Skiff]

Hmm, perhaps:

1 - Size
2 - Size with fixed unit (KB)
3 - Size with variable unit (Bytes/KB/...)

I think the best way for number 3 would be Size (automatic unit) or Size (auto unit)

@XnTriq: Thanks for great explanation for "bottom up" - for polish it would be "render image from bottom to up" (almost literally translated).

[helmut]

Hmm, perhaps:

1 - Size
2 - Size with fixed unit (KB)
3 - Size with variable unit (Bytes/KB/...)

I think the best way for number 3 would be Size (automatic unit) or Size (auto unit)

O.k., one more:
1 - Size
2 - Size [KB]
3 - Size [Automatic unit]

[Dreamer]

Hmm.. I know it's a bit longer, but for me this would be the best.

Size
Size (KB)
Size (Auto - Bytes/KB/MB/GB)

BTW "Size" is not good too, because it's the size in Bytes, also the order should be changed - as I see it's already changed in XnView, so this is my final suggestion...

Size (Auto - Bytes/KB/MB/GB)
Size (Bytes)
Size (KB)

Another suggestion:

"Color label number" >> "Color label - number" or "Color label (number only)"
"Rating number" >> "Rating - number" or "Rating (number only)"

Currently it's not clear it's the short version of rating. Moreover, if both options are used, it's not clear which one is rating, so perhaps, if possible symbols might be used: star for rating and another symbol - circle(?) for colour label, for example: 5* 3●... With the star symbol it would be also clearer the higher number means better rating.

[Skiff]

Size (Auto - Bytes/KB/MB/GB)
Size (Bytes)
Size (KB)

"Color label number" >> "Color label (number only)"
"Rating number" >>"Rating (number only)"

+1 to this. I think that this is the best proposition
