Bug ID: 135892
Summary: Naming of the Style inspector. Should it be Style
Inspector/ style explorer/ style examiner; and how
well does it translate
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.1.0.0.alpha0+ Master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: telesto at surfxs.nl
Description:
While reporting an issue with the style inspector I accidentally used style
explorer. Which made me think a bit. From user perspective is more an
instrument for explorer the used styles. So style explorer or maybe styles
examiner. The latter might translate better.
Of course you're inspecting styles; but an Inspector maybe have some kind of
negative connotation. Prüfer (DE) Kontrolleure (DE) are the most loved people;
people who always complain about something not being right. Of course maybe my
personal (slightly exaggerated) feeling; the context can make it more
acceptable.
Related to translations, has 'style inspector' checked by the translation
department? To get something which translates well in most/all languages. There
are number of cases where they translations end up being creepily awkward.
Skia/Raster being Skia/Rooster (Dutch) for example
I would prefer to check with translation in advance (or see what they come up
with).
