Suggestion about session buttons

[Tuxman2]

Hello heqro,

I've got a new suggestion. Propose an option to display or not the session buttons. I think about people who have small laptop (for example: a 2-in-1-laptop with a 10.x",11.6" or 13.3" screen) and who want to display big icons for the applications on the screen without the session buttons.

What do you think about it ?

About the tooltips of session buttons, is there a way to have it another language that English ?

Thanks.

The first one should be easy to get around.

About the languages bit, I am a bit confused because I could have sworn I was using this magic function called i18n that translated stuff whenever it could, but it seems like it has failed this time around. I hope changing languages is easy enough, because I'm going to try debugging this one in my mother tongue. I should have something by this afternoon.

Update: the first one is done. I've tried to get the second one done, but it seems like "Lock screen" doesn't want to get automatically translated :/

Thanks.

I looked with the other menus available in KDE Store. In the source code of one, I see it: text: i18n("Lock Screen") Otherwise, perhaps the name is "lock-screen" ?

Regards and Merry Christmas.

Yup, I have been trying that exact same i18n string to no avail :/

Hello,

very strange that you don't find the way to be able to translate Lock Screen button in another language.

I found it on the net: https://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Localization/i18n and https://api.kde.org/frameworks/ki18n/html/prg_guide.html

They talk about i18nc.

Regards.

an option to display or not the session buttons.

This was implemented. The issue should be closed, right?

The issue evolved into the fact that some translations made by Plasma don't actually work, namely the one for lock screen.
