English has been the source language of the program for a while now
(upstream: "Make English the source language ..."), the cable feature
came in with French ones: about 200 translatable strings over 30 files,
the two settings pages built from .ui files, four comments and one test
which asserted the old wording (blocking review comment by ispyisail).
The wording follows what the code base already uses where it exists:
Plant (=) and Location (+) as qetinformation.cpp names those element
information, Designation for the field the cable form calls its BMK,
Length, Sheet for folio, Automatic numbering, Cross-reference, and Right
aligned / Centred / Left aligned the way cabletextformatdialog.cpp
already spells the three alignment entries.
Two things are more than a word-for-word swap:
- xrefpropertieswidget.cpp:291 wrote the label of the master field on
every type change with a hardcoded tr("Maitre"), so the English
"Master" coming from the .ui was overwritten for every type, cable or
not: a real bug next to being French. The wording now comes back from
the .ui and only a cable renames the field to "Text:", so the two
cannot drift apart again.
- tst_cabletypelist kept asserting that a new catalogue is *labelled*
in French. That label line is the translated header and reads English
now. The test still reads files with French headers on purpose:
headerAliasMap() keeps the five old French labels as aliases next to
the English ones, so catalogues written by earlier builds, including
the one the reviewer reads her own types from, keep loading.
The .ts files are deliberately not regenerated here. Upstream
regenerates them on master, as it did for the language change itself,
and a translation is keyed on the source string: while the sources were
French a German user saw French in the cable dialogs, and an English
source string with no translation yet shows as it is.
Build clean, ctest 92/93, the one failure being the pre-existing
headless tst_menubarkeyboard.
Cables are drawn line objects (toolbar button next to the auto
break/reconnect button, click-move-click, right click cancels), not
components. The type comes from a CSV catalog following the material
list pattern (designation, cores, core colours, editable through the
entry dialog with "Nouvelle entrée" / "Modifier l'entrée").
Each core is bound to the wire its colour label stands on, and the
cable reference is generated per core and written into the Conductor
entry via Conductor::setCableReference(label, cable uuid, slot). The
conductor entry is where it has to live because the terminal strip
plan (Klemmenplan) consumes it in the next step.
Numbering: "Cables" rule under Programmeinstellungen/Neues
Projekt/Nummerierung auto (mirrored in project properties), literal
"W" fallback without a rule, French gate dialog when no rule exists,
Nummerierung menu with the renumber dialog (preferred axis, per-folio
counter, rule and counter state written back, hand-typed names ask,
whole-project scope).
Also included: label block and under-line texts with per-text font and
alignment plus the material-list cell margins, free-core placement and
right-click removal, claim questions for wires of other cables,
multi-selection drag as one undo step, type change with confirmation,
cross-references for type "Cable" (%f-%l%c, own font, clickable links
in exported PDFs), report propagation of the cable definition,
Listes menu (table of contents, material list, terminal strip manager,
terminal generator plugin, cable list), cable list with freely
selectable columns (installation/localisation of cable, start and end,
Blatt start/end, length, used cores...), CSV export dialog with column
pick and preview in the Projekt menu, script API (addTable kind
"cable_list", exportCableList) and a unit test for the type catalog.
They don't work now with official collection, because we must to update the information of element (type coil or protection).
You can test it by creating new master element (dont forget to define the master type, coil or protection).
