Hi,

> ------------------ Original ------------------
&gt; From: "dmtrs32 dmtrs32" <dmtr...@gmail.com&gt;;
&gt; To: "LibreOffice-l10n"<l10n@global.libreoffice.org&gt;; 
&gt; Subject:&nbsp; [libreoffice-l10n] 05140100.xhp -- LibreOffice Help - 
master text/shared/01
&gt; 
&gt; Could somebody clarify this:
&gt; 
&gt; Create new <switchinline select="appl"&gt;<caseinline 
select="WRITER"&gt;paragraph,
&gt; character, frame, page, list, and table</caseinline&gt;<caseinline
&gt; select="CALC"&gt;cell and page</caseinline&gt;<defaultinline&gt;graphic
&gt; </defaultinline&gt;</switchinline&gt;styles<switchinline 
select="appl"&gt;<caseinline
&gt; select="WRITER"&gt;from objects that are formatted manually to the new 
style
&gt; that you want to create.</caseinline&gt;<caseinline select="CALC"&gt;from
&gt; manually modified cell or page 
formatting.</caseinline&gt;<defaultinline&gt;from
&gt; objects that you have formatted manually to the new style that you want to
&gt; create.</defaultinline&gt;</switchinline&gt;

This is LibreOffice Help XML's way of writing an if-elseif-else structure to 
enumerate
all different cases.&nbsp; In more readable pseudocode:

if "shown in Writer Help":
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; display "Create new paragraph, character, frame, page, list, 
and table styles from objects that are formatted manually to the new style that 
you want to create."
else if "shown in Calc Help":
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; display "Create new cell and page styles from manually 
modified cell or page formatting."
else:
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; display "Create new graphic styles from objects that you 
have formatted manually to the new style that you want to create."

I don't know exactly why the English original is constructed in such a 
splintered way,
but it won't hurt if you just use three different full sentences in your 
translation.&nbsp; Just
be careful to put the proper XML tags in the correct places, as they won't 
match the
ones in English (perhaps Weblate and other tools will also complain that the 
tags
don't match).

&gt; Thanks

Hope this helps,
Ming
