tl;dr: You can’t do that from a GSettings schema file. GLib doesn’t support translations of enum/flag value names or nicknames, because they can end up being used as identifiers for the enum/flag values (for example, when calling g_enum_get_value_by_nick()). Probably the right way to do it is to keep an array of the translatable enum names in your code, and have xgettext extract the strings from that. Presumably you’ll need the enum names in your code somewhere anyway to put them in the UI. If you really want to make everything dynamic, you could write some custom ITS rules for extracting the enum nicks from the GSettings XML file, and use them with xgettext’s `--its` argument. Philip
