<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Hi, </div>for Slovenian I already asked to include space in front of "%" and it was done. I also changed all translated strings accordingly. It was done for 4.2 or even before, can't remember. Hopefully those settings for Slovenian were inherited by 4.3. </div>Lp, m. </div><div class="gmail_extra"> <div class="gmail_quote">2014/1/21 Caolán McNamara <<a href="mailto:caolanm@redhat.com" target="_blank">caolanm@redhat.com</a>> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> For 4.3 we are now, in the normal case, putting space between values and units in spinners. e.g. now "10 mm" instead of "10mm". (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_31-0" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_31-0</a>) For the degree symbol we are not putting space between value and unit, i.e. it remains "10°" I think those are hopefully uncontroversial. The tricky case is the % symbol, because, while ISO-31-0 implies that "10 %" is the preferred scientific format, English style guides prefer "10%" and "10 %" looks "just plain wrong". It's a locale-dependent formatting rule (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percent_sign" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percent_sign</a>) So to resolve this we now have a function formatPercent which takes the number and the locale and runs it through icu's PercentInstance to format it according to that locale's formatting rule. Which gives e.g. "10 %" for de and "10%" for en. (<a href="http://site.icu-project.org/" target="_blank">http://site.icu-project.org/</a>) What this means is that: a) In the English strings in .src files the source text should not have a space between number and %. I think these are all fixed now. b) You should check that the icu percent formatting rule is considered correct for your language in the context of a office suite UI e.g. in the spinner of view->zoom->zoom->variable c) If you agree with icu's % formatting for your language then update the translations for X% to be consistent with that formatting. Otherwise we can fix icu or make a blacklist of languages which should be excluded from the default icu percent formatting.
