Re: [libreoffice-l10n] Too little space for meaningful non English strings.
A few more strings that have too little space: 1) ODF Spreadsheet (not saved by LibreOffice) -- cuts off anything that is even a few characters longer than the English string, which means that Germans only see about 2/3 of their translation. This one should really be fixed as soon as possible, IMO. 2) Restart every new page -- cuts off the end of e.g. French and Finnish translations, as they are a bit longer than in English. I'm quite sure there are more, these just caught my eye at a quick glance.

Hi Andras, I have to warn you that, in KDE environment, I also noticed visual rendering, such as cuts on top or bottom of spaces in writings, in some dialogs. You can notice them especially in the options dialogs, where the main dialog seems to be not resizable. I speak for the Italian interface, but I think there's the same problem also in other languages. Is it possible to check and fix it? TIA, Ciao -- Valter Open Source is better!
