Well, translators don't *need* to specify a specific mnemonic. If there is no explicit character, LO will pick a free letter on runtime. This works for less frequently / obscure features that are only seldomly accessed. Of course for defailt items like File Open / close / delete, the goal should be to match default/established mnemonics if possible (those that are the same for multiple applications in the language) - this also is not possible in every case, as different desktop environments might have different conventions already. After that the goal should be to have consistent mnemonics across the different parts of LibreOffice for the default items. There's a macro document that queries currently used mnemonics, that can be used as base for a rework / getting the status quo. http://go.mail-archive.com/3WxP1tnC_9bksD0nvzlEDjwYHzo= ciao Christian -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: l10n+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/l10n/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
