add-on Installation: truncated popup message

Post by Antro »

Hi gents, a small "issue": in the popup window asking for the confirm of add-on installation, it seems that the message is truncated, both english and italian language

Screenshot of the message from po/wesnoth/it.po

The truncated popup: according to the string in the .po file, "continuing?" is missing.

Changing screen resolution and/or language doesn't solve the issue, at least for english and Italian...

A second side question: the server present always the english description of an add-on, even if a translation for the local client language is available. The client is not forwarding the choose local language ? Could it be a future improvement?

Unless you know the add-on maintainer provided a description translation for the server in addition to the translation catalogues for the game, it probably just means there isn't a description translation available for your language. (Since 1.15.x, uploaders can but are not required to provide a translated description in the _server.pbl.)
