Re: ITT suggestions
I thought the ref data could be read internally, sorry about that. If something can be done... please do so, as often I come back to ITT to check and copy translated parts. Manually removing accelerators is a slow down.
Buttons: simple recasing or token validation scripts. This would avoid frequent alt-tabbing to a second instance, which I did for my translation and believe me: it's deadly boring.

But scripting has no access to ITT. How should that work then? Via clipboard?SkyFrontier wrote:Buttons: simple recasing or token validation scripts. This would avoid frequent alt-tabbing to a second instance, which I did for my translation and believe me: it's deadly boring.

Re: ITT suggestions
Yes, no direct edit box manipulation but simple *src = clip, recase/whatever, out to clip* scripts.
As simple as a single CTB, perhaps having no menu displayed on right click (ie, right click should only fire the second stored script) unless a 'ctrl' or whatever is pressed along with the click.

Re: ITT suggestions
Well, that's not possible I'm afraid. No scripting here, since MLS/ITT will also be present in the Home Edition (which has no scripting).
However, I can add shortcuts to change the case of letters or words.
Note that this (from v7.50.0008 - 2008-09-01 15:35) works already now:

Note that this (from v7.50.0008 - 2008-09-01 15:35) works already now:
Code: Select all
+ Edit boxes: Added a few service key combos to convert selected text
F5: to Title Case (converts the first letter of every
word in string to upper case); this is for ANSI
strings only
Shift+F5: to UPPER CASE
Ctrl+F5: to lower case
If no text is selected then the conversion applies to the
character right after the caret. Works in all editable multiline
boxes, and also in Rename Boxes and Font Preview Sample.
BTW, took those KS from UltraEdit.

Re: ITT suggestions
By far the most used function was 'title', and scripting allows me to make exceptions for prepositions (this is the key point, here! I *always* followed the developer choices concerning formatting on GUI).

@admin
Since there is no spell checking available in ITT, would it be possible to add a function to export all translated strings as plain text file?
It would be easier to open it in some word processor and do the check.

Re: ITT suggestions
The status icon (or another GUI element) should provide a way to copy all search and replaced items (original and translation) for further extra revision - sometimes a batch, blind search and replace can cause more harm than help.

Re: ITT suggestions
Bug in the ITT: Translating a fieldset caption always changes the caption of the "Translation preview" box too.

Re: ITT suggestions
The ITT applies the previews to the wrong border.
