Bug ID: 468395
Summary: Scanning progress label makes me dizzy in Polish
Classification: Applications
Product: filelight
Version: 22.12.3
Platform: openSUSE
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
Reporter: giecrilj at stegny.2a.pl
CC: martin.sandsmark at kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When the application scans a folder, it displays its progress ("%d files, %d
total") in a centred label. This works well when it does it in English but not
so well in Polish. Polish, along with many other languages, has declination.
Moreover, like in a few other languages, numerals >4 are not numbers and must
be followed by the genitive case. In numerals >20 the lowest digit counts.
Incidentally, the genitive case for "files" has a different length than the
nominative case.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Scan the home folder.
OBSERVED RESULT
The progress message alternates between "???4 pliki, ??? GB" and "???5 plików,
??? GB", depending on the least significant digit. The message is centred, so
the place where it begins fluctuates in the most annoying way.
EXPECTED RESULT
There should be separate controls for COUNT, FILES, SUBTOTAL, UNITS and they
should all have a fixed width:
<INPUT TYPE=NUMBER READONLY NAME=COUNT > <INPUT TYPE=TEXT READONLY NAME=FILES
>,
<INPUT TYPE=NUMBER READONLY NAME=SUBTOTAL > <INPUT TYPE=TEXT READONLY
NAME=UNITS >

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Alternatively, displaying only numbers that end with 0 would do the trick too.
But it would be a hack, of course.
