Hi Eneroth3 not getting any thing in dialogue box. I'm on Mac with Safari 7.0.4 and SU 2014 everything up to date.

Hi

Is it the same for all dialogs or just this one?

Thanks!

Here's some more screen shots of the other dialog boxes.

It looks as if the javascript code in dialog.show_modal doesn't run on that specific web dialog, probably due to a misspelling in the code. Hopefully there's no problem with the other dialogs

French translation of the Documentation is done!

I will see now if the new version 1.1.0 has a new documenttion!

I don't understand much French so I can't say much about the translation but I did notice you have capital letters where there shouldn't be in the motion types of the mechanical parts in rolling stocks. Unless these (and all other text the user writes) is spelled correctly the computer won't understand it.

Can you give me an example and addresse page?
For correction if necessary

I don't know if you changed the capital letter because now I can't find them but the Create Rolling stock page mentions an attribute called "rayon" that doesn't exist in the plugin. Also there are no headers in the text except for in a few random places so it's quite hard to see what text belongs to what.

pilou · 19 Jun 2014, 15:12

Effectivelly I had changed some capitals

yes it's all the difficulty of translation!
What translate or not!

So imagine in the Ruby code Text!

"radius" and all few little things corrected

This is very mysterious for me!
Have you an example of that ? Or a Copy screen ?

"Les pièces en mouvement" is a little bigegr than normal text and has the same color even though it is a second level header. "Toutes les pièces mécaniques" looks the same even though it's a third level header. "translation_circular" is also a third level header but it's white unlike all other text.

is a translation of the plugin realy important?. ok the manual in other languages is ok.

pilou i would understand your wish, if eneroth to have written the plugin in swedish.

i think this is not the main problem.

my native language is german, and i don´t ask about any translations.
the common denominator is english i think.

will you let play your kids with this plugin?

i must say in don´t missing german in this plugin.

best regards to a wonderful france. i watching in ARTE(TV)any documentaions about france.

dean from berlin

p.s.

here some text from mark twain about german language.

(www.crossmyt.com)

or here

german have very long words and if i see the plugin, the layout must be changed.

If there is a translation it has to be 100% correct and not fool the user into problems with the plugin. However I don't see a very big need for it. Learning English, today's lingua franca, is a long term solution that is also very beneficial in other situations throughout life.

translation is on part, the translator must understand the subject,too.
i need only a translation, if the subject will be very difficult to understand.

difficult for me is the way to setup the rolling stock like the flying scotman.

That's also the part hardest to translate because if anything is not 100% perfect it will go wrong and not work. I might some day look into the docs and try to make it easier to understand with more images, perhaps even videos of certain steps. Perhaps there will even be a graphical interface in the distant future to initialize the moving parts more easily.

deaneau · 19 Jun 2014, 22:16

yes, one movie or picture tell more than thousand words.

pilou · 19 Jun 2014, 22:52

Some Titles corrections You are very strict!

As the page text is some long, reader has forgotten the level of reading and me too!

Excuse for no reply before. All web dialogs work fine now on Mac 10.9.3 & SU2014, included "Insert Track".

One question, the Track Properties icon is off although you have selected a Track, you can to access to the Properties Track only by Contextual Menu.

To translate the web dialogs BGSketchup_Composants plugin have a file named Loacalization.rb that include all languages, I don't know the ruby code but perhaps this can be a solution to give support to translation.

pilou · 21 Jun 2014, 00:39

With new version 1.11 on 2014 (previous version was fine)

Seems Connect Ends system from Selection between roads create rails!
Does this normal ?

And Add a Rolling Stock adds an image and not a volume!

No worry about not replying earlier:). It's good that the web dialogs work but I don't understand why it didn't for
mwm5053.

That's odd. Perhaps Mac doesn't run the Proc determining its state as often as Windows.

It's quite easy to just load strings in ruby from localized files but getting it into web dialogs that are saved as HTML documents is a bit tricker but there are solutions. However the names and description of track types would not b4e translated since that's custom often user created content.
