Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 128283
Issue with layout of dialog "Solver"

Created attachment 86826 [details] Comparison of Solver dialog - Polish vs English choose Tools > Solver..., dialog "Solver" appears in POLISH version two labels have not enough space allocated to be displayed in full. See attached file - these labels are marked in yellow. Issue doesn't occur in many other language versions, i've checked English, French and German ones. Please consider changing either the width of dialog "Solver" or names for labels.
Hi, Can you think of a shorter Polish translation for: Optimize result to and: By changing cells ?

Of course I could find shorter translation but first take a look at solution applied in Libre Office - they changed the width of dialog. See atttached screenhot. If that doesn't suit you, i'll send my proposal later because right now I am preparing two new issue for Bugzilla

I am already looking into the dialog resource file... ;-)
Confirmed on Windows 7 with Polish Language Pack.

"Optimize result to" --> "Zoptymalizuj wynik do" ["Optymalizuj wynik do","Równa","Wartość docelowa","Funkcja celu"] 2. "By changing cells" --> "Komórki zmieniane" ["Przez zmianę komórek","Komórki dla zmiennych"] Please note few alternatives given in square brackets (in order of inferiority). They all have proper length too. In doubt any user can find in AOO Help, in Polish, concise and precise explanation of Solver. A last resort - if it's not possible to increase dialog's width - could be putting original content into help text of label control (quirky...). In attached file you will find both original version and a new one of dialog "Solver", done in Dialog Editor. By the way: "By changing cells" in French version reads "Par modification de cell". "Cell" equivalent in French is "cellule" not "cell". Seems to me that someone knowingly (?) shrinked word "cellules" (plural for "cellule") to non-existing word "cell" and avoided problem of limited space for label. (One could report that to Bugzilla...)

(In reply to czeslaw.wolanski from comment #7) > Created attachment 86829 [details] > Proposal for translation in dialog "Solver" Regarding translations: Feel free to subscribe to our localization mailing list and coordinate with the Polish translation team: https://openoffice.apache.org/mailing-lists.html#localization-mailing-list-public
(In reply to czeslaw.wolanski from comment #3) > Created attachment 86827 [details] > Changed dialog width Looking at the LO dialog it seems that they simply moved the upper elements to the right. This is just a quick (and dirty?) hack. I am sure we can find a better solution.
Created attachment 86839 [details] Resized Solver dialog Resized and aligned. Hopefully enough space for every language.
Committed to trunk: https://github.com/apache/openoffice/commit/b6c7a28b99eb2897f6f5ea9585b3031356dcfd24 and Cherry-Picked for AOO42X.
Should be visible in new test builds now.
Cherry-picked for AOO 4.1.8
