            Bug ID: 130979
           Summary: LO7: Tooltips in cui/messages.po contain variable
                    %MOD1 instead of string
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.0.0.alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: UI
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: miles at filmsi.net

Description:
Obviously to circumvent different strings for macOS and other OS (as modifier
keys are different) someone introduced %MOD1 to insert a proper key.
But this solution is useful only for English and other languages that do not
uses cases - for other languages this is not a proper solution.
So please revert strings back to Ctrl or create separate strings for macOS.
These strings cannot be localized properly.

Actual Results:
Tooltips cannot be properly localized in some languages.

Expected Results:
Tooltips should allow for proper localization.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
UI designers should think about the l10n process.
