Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 122632
Not localizable string in Sort dialog
Last modified: 2017-05-20 09:47:09 UTC
Created attachment 80947 [details] Screenshot that shows the untranslated string On an Spanish snapshot build for AOO 4.0 AOO400m2(Build:9701) - Rev. 1496831 2013-06-26 10:32:38 (Wed, 26 Jun 2013) - Linux x86_64 under "Datos" (Data) → "Ordenar" (Sort) → "Opciones" (Options) tab, on the lower part of the menu you can read __Anonymous_Sheet_DB__1 See screenshot for reference. I'm not able to find the string on Pootle.
This a define in sc/source/core/tool/dbcolect.cxx #define SC_DBNAME_UNNAMED "__Anonymous_Sheet_DB__" caused with the fix for bug 12666 in revision 1372767 http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/openoffice/trunk/main/sc/source/core/tool/dbcolect.cxx?r1=1198280&r2=1372767&diff_format=h It is a regression. Not sure if its a release blocker; feel free to request this status if you think so.
This string (and may be existing variants) can not be translated as they are used as internal identifiers. I think the dialog should be changed in order to hide these internal identifiers.
Also under Menu Data - Select Range these strings are shown - they identify internally used ranges.
Setting status to resolved/not_an_issue because, as explained above, this is not a problem of a missing translation but of a wrong dialog design. For fixing that we would need another issue.
