This is an error that appears when a project in the queue has vanished, the full message is "Error: Could not get status, project with index <num> doesn't exist". >"Error shutting down.

It should be 'administrator', a 'normal' user account on a Linux system doesn't have anything resembling 'root privileges'. >"Cannot open app in Hugin." >Why should one open an app in hugin?

No it is part of the command-line usage output which looks like this: Usage: PTBatcherGUI [-h] [-b] [-p] [-d] [-o] [-s] [-v] [<project1 <output prefix>> <project2 <output prefix>> <project3...] >"Trans Mercator" (EN) is translated with "Transverse Mercator" (DE) >which is actually English spelling. Has a previous string "Transverse >Mercator" in the English original been changed to "Trans Mercator"? If >this is an abbreviation: Should this be abbreviated? It's an abbreviation, it should really be "Trans. Mercator". This string actually originates in libpano13, so there is no need to abbreviate it when you use it as German in hugin. >>> Click to create or edit control points here. >I think the string should be changed to "Click here to create ..." >because cps are not edited "here"=in the preview. Yes this should be fixed, but I don't want to add any unnecessary churn to the translation strings - English may just have to cope with it being a bit wrong until after 0.8.0. >"Specify project source file(s)" >Does it mean anything different from "Specify project file(s)"? It means the same thing, it is referring to .pto project files. >"Complete" >Something like "completed the job"? It's a status bar message, e.g: "In progress", "Complete", "Failed". -- Bruno --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hugin and other free panoramic software" group.
