Created attachment 44059 [details] Screenshot showing the "broken" strings The strings in the "Speichern unter..." screen are too short to show the capitons in one line, especially the string "Automatische Dateinamenserweiterung". I think there's not enough space left to show the complete caption in one line. I attached a Screenshot to clarify this bug.
I could not reproduce this bug on Windows XP. Can you please backup c:\Program Files\LibreOffice 3\Basis\program\resource\fps_officede.res and use the one I attach here? Please report, if the problem was solved.
Created attachment 44063 [details] patched resource file Try this.
Seems that the problem only occurs on Windows Vista and Windows 7. I forget to test in Windows XP I must confess. The patched resource file you attached has not fixed the problem.
OK, just for the record, I patched the coordinates at http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/libs-core/fpicker/source/office/iodlg.src#165 Now I realized that probably I patched the LibreOffice file picker dialog instead of the extension to the native Windows file picker dialog. At the moment I don't know how to fix this bug.
To use the patched resource file, have I to do something else than just replacing the file in the directory? Maybe I applied the patch the wrong way, I'm not a developer.
Quit the application (including quickstarter), then replace the file, then start it again.
Okay, I did that, but without success. I'll restart the machine and try again.
Don't bother, probably I patched the wrong place indeed. Your bug must be somewhere in http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/libs-core/fpicker/source/win32/filepicker/VistaFilePickerImpl.cxx
@Tor: I tried to debug this issue and I found that checkboxes were set via IFileDialogCustomize::AddCheckButton Method. This method does not take coordinates so I think this bug is not fixable by us. Checkbox control is multiline but not wide enough for the extra long word "Dateinamenserweiterung". I tried to add a soft hyphen "Dateinamens<SHY>erweiterung" but it was ignored by Windows, it displayed a real hyphen and broke the word at a wrong position again. Do you think it is NOTOURBUG or can we try something else?
Would it be possible to rephrase the German text, so the error would not occur? E.g. instead of "Dateinamenserweiterung" could it be "Erweiterung der Dateinamen"?
Another possible string might be "Dateierweiterung" or "Dateiendung". Short and simple to understand I guess.
Today I fixed this bug with "automatische Dateiendung" as ist was discussed at the german discuss mailinglist. Will be fixed within LibreOffice 3.4.5 and 3.5.0.
