translation for open file

[jezevec]

Seems there are no translation strings for open file dialog.

Strings without translation examples: Look In, File Name, Files Of Type, Up One Level etc.

In attached img is cs version with some translated filetypes.

Open file dialog

This is part of Java. We can't translate this without replacing the dialog completely. I think there is another ticket which had a possible suggestion to do string-injection into the dialog, but I can't find it.

Ticket #4636 has been marked as a duplicate of this ticket.

(In [3294]) fixed #5093 - translation for open file

You need to extract the messages and save them in "specialmessages.java" in i18n dir, or we wont have translations for them!

I'm aware of that, but cannot do it at the same time :)

No multitasking?

my computer yes, but for my brain i missed the latest update

OK, I tested for Ukrainian now:

Some messages are translated (mostly tooltips) but some are not:

As far as I can see, the only problem is upper case / lower case:

I copied the messages from the source but it seems Java randomly capitalizes some words:

"Files of type:" --> "Files of Type:"

(Or maybe Java has updated the messages slightly in later versions.)

What shall we do about it?

(In [3326]) see #5093 (translate more messages)

Ok added messages for other look and feels. Let's see if it helps (​[o21627])

As said above, there seem to be slight variations in capitalization and punctuation. If you encounter another untranslated string in this dialog you can reopen and add the exact string. (Depends also on Look&Feel.)

I added already the 2 tooltips for ok and cancel in metal Look&Feel.
