Part Two: Translating other parts of Scribus…

Translating Qt framework

Scribus is based on the Qt Framework and therefore some basic dialog box receive translations from the Qt directly. Ideally Qt framework would have complete translations on that specific relevant language.

Example of a Qt translation dependence. This is Scribus using the Hungarian localization with 100% completed translation file. As you can see the strings for the dialog box buttons are still in English.

But sometimes if we encounter using Scribus in another language besides english that:

1. some basic dialog boxes appear English
2. the specific language you are using in Scribus has been translated totally or that you've looked in the .ts file and can't find those non-translated strings

This indicates that the issue is an upstream Qt translation problem. To check this you can check the Qt translation state for your specific language here. The Qt framework is translated code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qttranslations, and this is the official guide for translators.

We can add some screenshot from the bug: https://bugs.scribus.net/file_download.php?file_id=8347&type=bug Please, fix my text. I'm not a native English speaker.
