Some translated strings at the Options dialog won't fit, because the allocated room for them only allows for ~10...20% length increase compared to English originals. But for several languages (Estonian, Finnish, German, French, to name a few), translated strings are often longer than that, and thus get chopped off at the end. Cases in point are listed below. Options - Load/Save - General, key ID YS72Z: en: _Edit document properties before saving et: _Enne salvestamist muudetakse dokumendi o<chop here>madusi fi: _Muokkaa asiakirjan ominaisuuksia ennen tallennusta fr: Éditer les propriétés du document _avant l'enregistrement VqGoW: en: Save URLs relative to file system et: Failisüsteemi URL-ide salvestamine suhtelise<chop here>na fi: URL-osoitteen tallennus suhteessa tiedostojärjestelmään fr: Enregistrer les URL relatifs au système de fichiers AFFdp: en: Save URLs relative to internet et: Interneti URL-ide salvestamine suh<chop here>telisena fi: URL-osoitteen tallennus suhteessa internetiin fr: Enregistrer les URL relatifs à internet Options - LibreOffice - View, 4iRsE: en: Use system _font for user interface et: Süsteemse _fondi kasutamine kasutajal<chop here>iideses fi: Käytä käyttöliittymässä _järjestelmän fonttia de: Syst_emschriftart für die Benutzeroberfläche verwenden fr: _Utiliser la police système pour l'interface utilisateur The above regressed sometime during 4.1 (or maybe 4.0) cycle, i.e. during conversion to the new dialog style or whatsitcalled (they are all fine in 3.6); the one below is older (chopped already in 3.6). Options - LibreOffice Writer - Table, n6Bf9: en: Fi~xed, proportional et: ~Kindel, proportsionaa<chop here>lne (fi, de, fr fit) There are probably others, these just caught my eye in Estonian l10n. The common denominator here is that they all occur in places where there are two columns in the layout of the dialog.
Slovenian is affected as well, some examples: Options - LibreOffice - View: Spreminjanje mer is cut off instead of "Spreminjanje merila" "Velikost in slok ik" is cut off instead of "Velikost in slog ikon" "Samodejn" with half of an O at the end instead of "Samodejno" Options - LibreOffice - Personalization "Izberite temo." instead of "Izberite temo ..." Options - Load/Save - General at the end "Always Save As:" / "Vedno shrani kot:" is cut in half, only upper part of the line/charaters is shown! Options- Language Settings - Checking English Sentences the option "Pretvorba v metrske enote (C, km/h... is cut at the end
Same with croatian.
Could one of you add a screenshot of the problem, this sounds like it is a duplicate to bug 61544?

I am also attaching screenshots. I report this on RC3 and RC4 of LO410!

I don't think this is a duplicate of the other bug, that one talks about re-sizable windows, these are fixed size.

This is also happening in English as well. Most noticeable inside Load/Save - General. I can see the option to choose document type but can see the next option to choose which program type to auto save in.

Hi, same problems here for Italian version, I tested only for Windows 7 but I suppose it is the same in Linux. LibreOffice 4.0.1.4
With the ongoing UI conversion and following fix of fdo#61544 (put in See Also), any update with 4.2.6 or 4.3.0?
(In reply to Julien Nabet from comment #20) > With the ongoing UI conversion and following fix of fdo#61544 (put in See > Also), any update with 4.2.6 or 4.3.0? For Estonian localisation, these are all fixed (tried on Linux and Win7). I don't have time to try the other locales, but since the layout seems really better now, I hope they are OK too. Please test if you can. Marking as resolved.
