ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I am a translator at the Vietnamese branch of the language, and with large
amount of text (more than 7,000 (thousand) lines of text to translate, checking
the correctness of each line (whether it is displayed and that it is correctly
shown, with all articulations, accents) and if the 'msgctx' is needed to be
removed or not in order to show the message in the UI or not (someone seemed to
not understood the real role of msgctx in the po files, or the context has not
yet been implemented correctly, I do not know), so having to turnoff the app,
restart again, having to wait for app up/down like a yoyo is not the proper
method for changing a language. Blender app doesn't require this, you can
change the language within the app and changes can be shown straightaway. So in
order to load change of the language, I only need to compile the MO file (using
msgfmt -o $MO_FILE $PO_FILE) at a shell command line, then back to the UI,
switch the language from Vietnamese to English then back to Vietnamese again to
load the changes dynamically and all new changes will be shown. Can you please
making this behaviour the same in all KDE apps please? This will enormously
increase product rate and making life of translators much easier. Thank you for
listening. Best regards.
