Since languages support is now official maybe you could show downloads counter somewhere?
It may motivate some translators.

One thing I noticed:
The "Select language" menu item is now misleading. Maybe it should read "Select local language file" instead.

A similar issue:

Since we have "Select Language..." in the menu, should "Load language after download" better be called "After downloading select this language"???

Please, English mothertonguers, speak up!

Hello 8)

My first post here, so please bare with me, if I placed it in the wrong topic.

I took a quick look at a Danish translation, when this suddenly appeared.

I can't promise that I'll ever finish, but if I do, I'll create a Danish thread. In the meantime, I will not stand in anyone's way.
Kind regards
Regmos

Hi and welcome!

These are the internal keys for toolbar buttons that are used in the INI file and can be used in scripting to modify the toolbar. They are shown in that dialog IF that dialog is called from a user button. You are not the first to be surprised by this, but it makes at least a bit of sense since user buttons usually make use of scripting.

So you are thinking about making a Danish translation?! Cool! :appl:

Thanks :D

Quite logical, when you know it.
So you are thinking about....

Still considering. I've done a few translations in the past, but this is, by far, the biggest.
Kind regards

To motivate you: Denmark is in my top ten ranking of customers / population.

Little quiz: Which country is number one in my top ten ranking of customers / population? (I mean real countries, not something with a castle, a pope, and 2 horses.)

Hello again.

Just found Home Edition (#2169) and Emulate the Home Edition (#2170) in the language file (8.23).

Aren't they are obsolete ?
Kind regards

Yes, the Home Edition is not for sale currently. But owners of the home edition are still existing and upgrading, and who knows what the future will bring. So I simply left it in.

I also think you should change that. I wasn't misled because I know it's a language file but if I did not, I would have been confused as well. So "Select Downloaded Local Language File" would definitely be clear.

"Load Language After Download" is perfectly fine. I don't see an issue.
