Fwd: Natty: inconsistent way to access System configuration topics between Unity 2D and Unity 3D

[marmotte]

Hi Bruno,


Here is the answer of Hendrik about the translations of the directive to
access the setup tools in natty ...

3 options for us, what would you advise ?
1/ don't touch and let the current translation (gnome Unity2D behaviour's )
2/ translate with adapting to the unity3D way of access (just explain how to
access Control Center)
3/ translate both ways kind of access the setup tools

Hey.


Ok, but the way to access control center is the same in Unity 3D and in
Unity 2D as far as I can see. Only in Gnome it's different. But since Gnome
is not the fallback in 11.10 anymore you can just go ahead and translate the
string, so it fits for Unity I guess. Most people should see Unity anyway.



An alternative would be to change the original string to contain a directive
for Gnome and one for Unity.


Hendrik

Hi,

During the french translation of ubiquity-slideshow-*, I noticed that the
instructions to access the setup tools like accessibility, mouse, ... apply
only to the Unity 2D.

What about the access to setup tools in Unity 3D ?
Could we mention that the directives apply only to Unity 2D and explain that
in the 3D version all the Unity config tools are located in the Control
Center instead of the "gnome" system menu ?

For instance, to access accessibility in Unity 3D, we have to click on the
top right icon OFF, click on System Settings to open the Control Center and
be able to open the accessibility parameters.

You can have an example of the problem in the ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu at
the point 3.<https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu/+pots/ubiquity-slideshow-edubuntu/fr/+translate?field.alternative_language=&field.alternative_language-empty-marker=3&show=all&start=2>=>
*"You can get at these tools in one place: the <em>Assistive Technologies
Preferences</em>, inside the System Menu. From there, you can turn on
helpful tools like <em>Orca</em>, to speak text on the screen, or dwell
click to press mouse buttons automatically."*
