Description Marcellus Wallace 2020-11-30 13:02:08 UTC
Description:
Les noms des lettres grecques en français sont accentuées, cela pose un problème lorsque l'on veut utiliser le raccourci %OMEGA dans l'éditeur d'équation, c'est beaucoup moins pratiques et impossible sur certains claviers de portable

Actual Results:
on est obligé de passer par les onglets "Symboles" ce qui ralentit la saisie

Expected Results:
taper directement la formule en 5s


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Il ne s'agit pas d'un bug mais d'une traduction mal adaptée puisqu'elle ne facilite absolument pas la compréhension, mais en outre diminue l'utilisabilité du programme

On pc Debian x86-64 with LO Debian package 7.0.3.1 + French UI, I could reproduce this.

Sophie/Jean-Baptiste: Any thoughts here? I mean perhaps it's only translation part which could be changed.
I must recognize I tested this but it failed but perhaps it's because I must trigger the build of a specific component I don't have in mind.
Anyway, do you see any cons about removing accents in these letters?
Comment 2 Jean-Baptiste Faure 2020-11-30 21:26:15 UTC
I think that the correct solution is the solution proposed by bug 32415 : Add an option to use English names for Greek characters on Math.

If we translate the Greek character names, we must translate then correctly.
If we don't translate them, we force the user to learn the English names of Greek characters.

I think that this problem of accented capitalization cannot be solved using translation because %OMÉGA and %OMEGA must both be accepted by the software if it accepts %OMEGA.

Set OS to Windows because there is no problem with accented capitalization under Linux and (I guess) MacOS.

Best regards. JBF
