      pilou the entries in the drop down menue you can´t change, this is a entries written by the user.

      this will be the best idea, that all name of the objects, bridges, tunnel etc. is in english.
      what do you want do if a russian or japanese people write all entries in the own language. nobody will understand this.

      That's how it works with rolling stocks but I'm afraid track types are more complicated. Besides predefined strings such as bridge, tunnel etc the user must be able to add new words like arc, beam, low polygon or whatever describes that track type. I can't think of all possible terms and there can't be translations for them all because they are just too many.

      However I can write in the documentation that this info should be in English so track types can be shared but it will still, as I've said long ago, be mixed languages.

        Btw, nice truck Dean!

        this is not my own i have downloaded in the 3dwarehouse for test only.

        rotation problem. yes when the wheel is rounding. however i will learn to rotate the wheel. 😛

        do you have this in your making off movie?

        i hope so.
        i hate mixed language, too. i dont need german translation. ok i have now written the translation file, however i don´t use this.

        why? if i publish a screenshot all other can read this text of windows and dialogues.
        if i have an error and i publish this error in a german translation, nobody will understand this.

        least common denominator (LCD) is english.

        this would be difficult when pilou asking in french and eneroth answer in swedish 😄

          if the english text begin with uppercase you must translate this in uppercase, too. look at your picture. i know in german is that the same. some words will written in lowercase. thats look better.

          example:

          Il fait mauvais temps.

          It's foul weather today.

          when the english text look like this

          It's Foul Weather Today.

          you must write

          Il Fait Mauvais Temps.

          Dean

          p.s. i know this look terrible,
          let eneroth smile and write this again

                      Wow! After reading these posts, this is one of the most promising productive plugins I have seen for Sketchup since I started using the software in 2009. Keep up the good work and someone will complete a whole Hollywood movie using your plug-in (with many others). I won't be able to do anything with it for the next few weeks but, this could be packaged with Vali Architects Instant Site Grader Nui and Plusspec to do a complete city. Awesome! 👍

                                      You can all make models of these locomotives and share here 😄 . Remember that they might need to be quite low detailed to avoid lag, you can check out how the rolling stocks shipped with the plugin are drawn 😄 .

                                        Ok About the Pop UP Menu 😉
                                        I will just add that to the Documentation 😉

                                        About the number of lines : no problem I have them! (même les lignes vides sont numérotées! 😉

                                        About the Cancel : that is made 😄 (But synonym 😉

                                        I really don't understand how you manage to get it wrong all the time. It's not a synonym. It's a translation of the word in another context. Another, faulty, word doesn't make sense. If the translation doesn't make sense it' to no help at all. It's only harming the plugin.

                                        Also Apply seems to be translated to Appliquer in this context. Can you please explain how you managed to get completely different words? I really want to know because I just can't understand it. Have you never seen a dialog box like the one above?

                                            It's not just about these 2 phrases. It's about everyone in the whole plugin (230 of them) and every sentence in the whole so called translation of the documentation.

                                            If you run this in the console, what does it return?

                                            UI.messagebox "TEXT", MB_YESNOCANCEL
                                            

                                            It's not "strictly" the same. Different words are used in different contexts. It's strictly wrong with other inconsistent words.

                                            I have no idea how you do it when you so called translate. When you see strings such as "OK", "Cancel" and "Apply" under the header "Web dialog buttons" in the dictionary file, how can you not recognize those words from similar dialogs?

                                            Btw, you've also managed to color the x axis green several times in the so called translation of the documentation. That makes your statement that the so called translation is perfectly understandable to French people a lie.
