[Issue 125985] New: Corrections for EN UI and Help (v4.2.0)
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=125985
Issue ID: 125985
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: Corrections for EN UI and Help (v4.2.0)
Product: General
Version: 4.2.0-dev
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: CONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: ui
Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org
Reporter: astepukonis@apache.org
In the process of translating the UI and Help files, every once in a while, I
run into strings which seem to need correction in the English source. I am
opening this issue to list those strings and describe what needs fixing in
them.

I've make my point. We seem to disagree (I say "seem" because from your remark
I'm not sure you're getting my point). It's cool. Let's move on.

The issue concerns the caption text that shows up when hovering the mouse over
the tool button for inserting a footnote. That is to say, it occurs in the UI,
not in the Help (i.e. User guide).

Path: ...\helpcontent2\source\text\smath.po
String: main0503.xhp#par_id3153001.4.help.text
<ahelp hid="HID_SMA_COMMAND_WIN_EDIT">Use the $[officename] Math Commands
window to enter and edit formulas. As you make entries in the Commands window,
you see the results in the document.</ahelp> To maintain an overview when
creating long and complicated formulas, use the Formula Cursor on the Tools
bar. When this function is activated, the cursor location within the Commands
window is also shown in the text window.
I'm having some doubts about the expressions (1) "Commands window" and (2)
"document" in the sentence "As you make entries in the Commands window, you see
the results in the document".
Regarding (1): it is more of a pane than a window. A window is what one opens
by choosing Window - New Window. (1) is just a part of that window, i.e. a
pane. (Interestingly enough, this very pane is called "the equation editor" on
"http://www.openoffice.org/product/math.html").
Regarding (2): it would seem more accurate to refer to it as a document pane
or, as it is done later on in the paragraph, the "text window" (i.e. "text
pane").

I understand the motive for doing so, but I cannot justify it because the
description remains false: one cannot insert endnotes by clicking the icon that
allows inserting footnotes and only footnotes.

The only change I see that is needed here is in the description on the toolbar
button. The button that says insert footnote/endnot directly should be changed
to insert footnote directly as this is what the button does. There is already a
button to insert endnote directly. The use of the word directly is correct
English in that those buttons by-pass the insert dialog thereby inserting the
footnote or end note directly into the document.

But the All button applies the settings of the current level shown in the tab

--- Comment #14 from Aivaras Stepukonis <as...@apache.org> ---
Text incongruity between UI and Help.
In UI we have:
#:
DrawImpressCommands.xcu#..DrawImpressCommands.UserInterface.Commands..uno_ShowRuler.Label.value.text
msgid "Ruler"
and
#:
WriterCommands.xcu#..WriterCommands.UserInterface.Commands..uno_Ruler.Label.value.text
msgid "Ruler"
In both instances, the word "Ruler" is in the singular. It should be in the
plural, though, as it refers collectively to both the vertical and horizontal
rulers.
The plural would be consistent with references to the same item in Help.
See:
Path: ...\helpcontent2\source\text\simpress.po
String: main0209.xhp#par_id3153820.3.help.text
To show or hide the rulers, choose <link href="text/simpress/01/03060000.xhp"
name="View - Rulers"><emph>View - Rulers</emph></link>.
Here the same item is correctly referred to in the plural (i.e. "Rulers").

No and no over again.
"Insert Footnote Directly" describes the beviour correctly.
And consider that other insert functions open a dialog and/or have a dropdown
list for further settings/options.

By double-clicking on the ruler, you can open the <emph>Paragraph</emph> dialog
and assign <link href="text/shared/00/00000005.xhp#formatierung" name="direct
paragraph formatting">direct paragraph formatting</link> for the current
paragraph or all selected paragraphs.
Is: ...on the ruler...
should be: ...on the horizontal ruler...

It is correct, yet redundant and as such out of place. The description of a
toolbar icon should be treated as a case of contextual classification, not of
the general taxonomy of the software (as, say, in a conceptually laid out
manual).
Let visit the local groceries shop and look at the department names:
Bread | Dairy | Meat | Beverages | Candy
All good.
But what if one finds:
Bread | Dairy | Pork | Beverages | Candy
Wrong classification! A particular type of meat is juxtaposed to more general
types of food.
Same goes for describing as "Insert Footnote Directly" (pork) what should
simply be "Insert Footnote" (meat). Let us mind the context - it is a
description of an icon side-by-side with other icons, in a toolbar side-by-side
with other toolbars:
...New | Open | Page Preview | Bold | Italics | Gallery | Special Character...
It is not the right place to distinguish between different types of inserting
footnotes (they're not even being juxtaposed here as options) because one is
distinguishing here between different types of tools (printing vs opening,
previewing vs navigating and so on).
So a better idea in this particular case to just say "meat" instead of
specifying it's "pork" (even if that meat is in fact pork). That is to say,
"Insert Footnote" is more adequate to the immediate context of the icon than
"Insert Footnote Directly."

Your modifications at the <emph><switchinline select="sys"><caseinline
select="MAC">%PRODUCTNAME - Preferences</caseinline><defaultinline>Tools -
Options</defaultinline></switchinline> - $[officename] - Java</emph> tab page
will be used even if the Java Virtual Machine (JVM, a virtual machine for the
Java platform) already has been started. After modifications to the ClassPath
you must restart $[officename]. The same is true for modifications under
<emph><switchinline select="sys"><caseinline select="MAC">%PRODUCTNAME -
Preferences</caseinline><defaultinline>Tools -
Options</defaultinline></switchinline> - Internet - Proxy</emph>. Only the two
boxes "Http Proxy" and "Ftp Proxy" and their ports don't require a restart,
they will be evaluated when you click <emph>OK</emph>.
Is: Http Proxy
Should be: HTTP Proxy
Is: Ftp Proxy
Should be: FTP Proxy

I understand that and since these two terms are referenced in the User Guide
and presumably by users, the existing UI menu item "Insert Footnote/Endnote
Directly" should be left as it is. Well the "Directly" could be omitted I
guess.
These terms are also used in the Insert menu item.
