            Bug ID: 513640
           Summary: Improve i18n for spin boxes
    Classification: Applications
           Product: LabPlot2
      Version First unspecified
       Reported In:
          Platform: Other
                OS: Other
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
  Target Milestone: ---

I’ve noticed there are quite a few spin boxes in Labplot that adds a suffix to
the value with the setSuffix modifier. However, Qt spin boxes are quite limited
in terms of proper i18n support, there is no way to use plural forms easily and
you can either add a prefix or a suffix, which makes it hard to localise
percent values (at least for my language).

The solution would be to use KLocalization::setupSpinBoxFormatString, which
allows to use a format like “%v”, which allows translators to see the context
easily and modify the strings.

For an example use:
