translation of BIM & Reinforcement Addons

[david69]

@yorik & @chennes how do you manage the translation of the BIM & Reinforcement Addons? these two Addons are a bit special compare to other ones as they were submit to GSOC and must be somehow 'more' official. correct me if I am wrong.

as I went through their wiki pages that I slightly update, it appears some wording are not put for translation. for ex, take BIM, all top menus are missing.
other translations, I don't understand where they come from.

these addons are certainly low prior compare to the delivery of the next release, nevertheless it can be good to give a glance. I can establish a list of what seems weird for me.

find in attachment the file and what I have noticed.
+ @kaktus in the loop, yesterday we have a chat about that.

Hello


I presented the first anomaly here
https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-tran ... issues/224

I am now reviewing the list of problems prepared by David and see that there is another anomaly

my version of FC and BIM add-on

Code: Select all

OS: Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm) (KDE/plasma)
Word size of FreeCAD: 64-bit
Version: 0.21.0.33110 (Git) AppImage
Build type: Release
Branch: master
Hash: 18e40941ceb36c52701a7c74ea26043ef3385701
Python 3.11.3, Qt 5.15.8, Coin 4.0.0, Vtk 9.2.2, OCC 7.7.1
Locale: Polish/Poland (pl_PL)
Installed mods: 
  * Curves 0.5.0
  * sheetmetal 0.2.56
  * Reinforcement
  * BIM 2021.12.0

Davis pointed out the lack of translation of the main menu when the BIM is loaded.

In my case, the translations are displayed but with the incorrect code page (I see funny characters).

the subsequent problems that David describes are not 100% consistent with what I see on the screen.
The number of untranslated option labels occurring is not consistent with what David noted ...

In addition:
We have a difficult time checking for errors with translations because Appimage for Linux Os has not been released for two weeks.

@amrit3701 I understand you' re going to complete the missing commands on BIM addons.

do we really need the html code on some of the strings? on other wb, it has been said it is useless or at least not all. I'm saying that for the future translators, for French, your addon is 100% translated and if you decide to modify, well we need to retranslate which is not the end of the world and can save headaches for other translators.

do you know where is the string 'Move to Trash'. It has disappeared (hidden?)

@amrit3701 I guess you are the person whom have pushed new strings on Crowdin.
Do you mind to give a look to it? I've left few comments. thanks.
