Title: Question about translating MC
Post by: Johnny B on April 27, 2006, 06:30:02 am

I realized that MC is not (yet) translated into my native language (Czech) so I tried and the process seems to be pretty simple (well the text file is way too looooooong so it definitely WILL take "some" time  8) )
My question is: is it possible to somehow move the position of fields? Should I contact anyone? Will developers consider it (I don't know what is the way of the process for the other translators) or do I definitely HAVE to fit within the set size?

Here is an example:

This field definitely could be moved to the right a little bit to make the room for the translated string

It's very difficult to set up dialogs to correctly accommodate translated text as in the example you've listed. What some of the translators have been doing is abreviating phrases when necessary.

Send me an email if you have any direct questions regarding translation.
