Translation in FEM

[UR_]

For the strings in ui files, I do not know either ATM.

E. g.
- open ...Mod\Fem\Resources\ui\ConstraintTie.ui with QT Designer
- select a label

We need to start somewhere ... Which FEM strings would you like to see translated. Would you post a screen shot?

I record a short film about the state of the interface in FEM

After Yorik build project in Crowdin at 23 September, translation got a little better, but there are still a lot of untranslated strings and commands.

Update of src/Tools/updatets.py doesn't solved the problem with translations yet.

First, can we find one that's actually missing from the *.ts files? I'd like to pick just two commands to look at in detail: one that's being translated, and one that's not. The few I spot-checked were all in the TS files, even if there was not a translation available for that string yet.

This is fresh Fem.ts

It contains: Create FEM fixed constraint

Code: Select all

  <context>
    <name>CmdFemConstraintFixed</name>
    ...
    <message>
      <location filename="../../Command.cpp" line="315"/>
      <source>Create FEM fixed constraint</source>
      <translation>Создать фиксированное граничное условие для МКЭ</translation>
    </message>
    <message>
      <location filename="../../Command.cpp" line="316"/>
      <source>Create FEM constraint for a fixed geometric entity</source>
      <translation>Создать граничное условие фиксированной геометрии для МКЭ</translation>
    </message>
  </context>

but not contains: Constraint contact

For example.

Perfect, thanks -- I will investigate, it looks like the new code is not combining the C++ and the Python strings correctly. Back to the drawing board!

I'm betting that this is the problem:

Code: Select all

File src/Mod/Fem/Gui/Resources/translations/Fem.ts won't be updated: it contains translation but the target language is not recognized

[chennes]

Indeed, if I manually edit the main *.ts file to specify English, it works. But I don't know why I have to do this, looking at Draft for example, it does not.

I changed

Code: Select all

<TS version="2.1">

to

Code: Select all

<TS version="2.1" language="en">

in Fem.ts, and that shut the error up and got the TS file updating. But I have no idea why that should be needed only in Fem.

Maybe draft workbench not have mixed cpp + py code?
I do not know how the bash code looks like. But maybe we can specify the language via the command line? Or this is impossible?
