[sw-issues] [Issue 50339] navigator entries should be in plural

It is clear that STR_CONTENT_TYPE_FRAME must be changed from "Text frame" to "Text frames", and that this trivial fix solves the main problem. Then, once the interface is consistent, you can address the problem with different plural forms (that, by the way, does not affect Italian).

Tooltips look like: 0 Headings, 1 Heading, 2 Headings. This may be OK in English, but not in A LOT of other languages. Please: - separate at first strings for entries and for tooltips, as these are not identical in many languages. - mark the count with %1 variable, so translator can change word order in tooltip, to make visible string more acceptable (like original "%1 Headings", translation "Headings: 2"), as we still have no plural handling in OO.o localization, only ugly workarounds. - raise the priority of issue at least to P4, as this is very visible (we all the time suggest new users to use Navigator as one of the OO.o key parts...) - when all the previous is impossible to implement in next 3 years, switch off tooltips in Navigator list, it is not a big loss, at least word combinations with no sense were not displayed. (Of course, its not only about sw module, this affects all Navigators, in Calc, Impress, etc.) - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

It is very bad design in 2 ways. At first, languages have diffent plural forms depending from number (eg. Russian 0,5,6... - one form, 2,3,4 - other form, 1 -singular. Second, many languages have CASES. So the common plural form Tables and form 6 Tables are not the same in MANY languages. We cannot turn this to right even in translation, because the number variable is not included in string, so we cannot reorder the string like: Tables - 6 - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

(L10n, i18n) There are two separate messages for singular and plural forms. Take the entry "Headings" for instance. There is a message "Heading" and a message "Headings". The first string is used with "1" when there is one heading in the document, and the second one with either "0" or a number greater than 1 depending on the number of headings in the document. The result is displayed in a box when you point your mouse at the entry. It's totally OK as long as we consider English: 0 Headings, 1 Heading, 2 Headings and so on. But obviously not all languages handle plurals in that way. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Liz->OS: Please correct as follows Text frame --> Text frames (German is correct) I'm not sure which string this is, but I'm guessing either one of these: KeyId 218739 Language German PRJsw Filename source\ui\utlui\utlui.src Build SRC680 GIDSTR_CONTENT_TYPE_FRAME or KeyId 218751 Language German PRJsw Filename source\ui\utlui\utlui.src Build SRC680 GIDSTR_CONTENT_TYPE_SINGLE_FRAME BTW: the online Help already uses the plural form, so no cc for UFI because the Help does not need to be updated as a result of this issue. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
