Format UI measurements, snap angles, ladder increments, edge-color values, Preferences labels, counts, and step/page labels using the widget locale without grouping. Preserve numeric table sorting with stored count values and trim localized zero digits correctly. Give float/double formatting and float parsing explicit helper names.
Mark HTML export titles, navigation, alternate text, and credits for translation, escape translated text, and declare UTF-8 output. Keep numbers in HTML, piece-list images, and print/PDF output in ASCII. Include the pending command-status translation drafts in all eight language catalogs, preserving their unfinished review status.
Validation: macOS Qt debug build, display and count-sorting checks across ten locales, all three HTML layouts with test translations under an Arabic numeric locale, and ASCII print/image checks. All eight catalogs pass XML, changed-placeholder, and lrelease validation.
Fill the 490 empty entries in each non-English catalog so the new help and labels are available in all eight languages. Preserve existing translations and mark generated text unfinished with translator comments for subsequent human review.
Preserve placeholders, rich text, links, and category-search syntax. Validate all catalogs with lrelease and verify all 3,920 new compiled translations at runtime, including unfinished drafts under the current build policy.
Provide contextual descriptions and F1 access for the five docks and main toolbars, including accessible property labels and keyframe controls. Handle chooser shortcuts across popup boundaries so help follows the focused control.
Register What's This as a customizable command in the Help menu and centralize command descriptions in lcCommand for translation during action creation. Refresh catalogs while preserving existing translations and review status.
Add Help/F1 support to Preferences, Render Log, Blender Add-on Reset, and the piece and custom color choosers. Share help routing between dialogs and menu-embedded widgets while preserving chooser selections and shortcut recording.
Explain all Preferences controls, link labels to their fields, and correct the Color Theme label buddy. Make Blender reset cancellation preserve pending edits and retain Apply availability after an accepted reset. Refresh catalogs while keeping existing translations and new strings unfinished.
Validation: debug build, all seven Preferences tabs, 85 field F1 routes, label buddies, F1 shortcut recording, native chooser menu Help/Escape, reset Cancel/Apply behavior, layouts, and catalog preservation checks passed.
Provide contextual Help/F1 descriptions and label buddies in Model Properties, Category, Edge Colors, About, and Check for Updates. Explain category expression operators, prefixes, and grouping with examples available from both Help and the Keywords field.
Retain Help when update results rebuild the dialog buttons. Document both edge-color modes and the parent Preferences workflow, and make About system information keyboard-selectable. Refresh catalogs without changing existing translations or reviewing new strings.
Validation: debug build; five-dialog Help/F1, Escape, layouts and buddy checks; both edge-color modes; update response states; category syntax examples; and translation preservation checks passed.
Provide Help/F1 entry points, control descriptions, and label buddies for POV-Ray settings, both Blender importer forms, object selection, and grouping. Make the POV-Ray button row span the form so Help aligns with the dialog margin.
Use complete translated Show Paths and Hide Paths labels when toggling Blender paths. Refresh catalogs while preserving existing translations and leaving new text unfinished.
Validation: debug build, five-dialog runtime Help/F1 and Escape checks, TN/MM field and label coverage, translated path toggling, button-row layout, and catalog preservation checks passed.
Explain piece selection, template persistence, palette management, and online inventory imports with tooltips and contextual Help/F1 support. Link minifigure labels to their selectors and give unlabeled controls accessible names. Rename the inventory dialog to Import Set Inventory to describe its action.
Show None for initially omitted minifigure pieces so selectors agree with the preview. Refresh catalogs while preserving existing translations and leaving new help untranslated.
Validation: debug build, all 17 initial minifigure selections, 47 generated controls, 17 label buddies, eight F1 routes, Help/Escape behavior, and catalog preservation checks passed.
HTML export saved its transparency option without passing it to image
rendering. Select a transparent clear background when enabled and preserve
the configured background with fully opaque pixels when disabled. Keep the
existing background behavior for other step-image and Save Image callers.
Add tooltips, contextual overviews, and Help/F1 support to HTML Export,
Submodels, and all three Render modes. Link field labels to matching help
and explain export scope, file output, model management, and render controls.
Refresh catalog keys and locations while preserving existing translations
and review status. Leave the 56 new strings untranslated for the later
translation pass.
Validation: Qt 6.10 debug build; 16 actual PNG exports covering two steps,
solid/gradient backgrounds, transparency on/off, tiled rendering, background
colors, retained geometry, and unchanged Save Image behavior; dialog Help/F1,
Escape, label-buddy and visual layout checks; catalog coverage for 2,170
active source messages; git diff --check.
Explain array counts, offsets, rotations, image dimensions, file naming,
and step ranges with translated tooltips and contextual help. Give both
dialogs a standard Help button and dialog-scoped F1 support that falls back
from the focused control through its parent groups to the overview.
Link image field labels to their buddies and share tooltip and field help
text. Add accessible names for unlabeled controls. Document the writing and
maintenance conventions, with concise guidance in the existing AGENTS.md.
Refresh all eight language catalogs while preserving existing translations
and review status. The 62 new help and accessibility strings remain
unfinished pending translation.
Validation: Qt 6.10 debug build; runtime checks for seven F1 routes, Help,
Escape, dialog state, spin-box focus, and five label buddies with matching
help; visual layout inspection; catalog coverage for all 2,118 active source
messages and existing translation preservation; git diff --check.
Show recoverable rendering, export, library, and network failures as warnings.
Default Blender messages to Warning, keep renderer startup failures Critical,
and remove the duplicate Blender installation failure dialog.
Replace 28 ordinary Blender helper calls with QMessageBox statics while
retaining specialized dialogs with informative text, details, or update
preferences. Preserve confirmation buttons and defaults and suppress static
startup/export messages without a main window. Rename the failed-result
helper to ShowResultError and refresh catalog locations and retired strings.
Validation: Qt 6.10 debug build; catalog coverage for all 2,056 active messages
and existing translation preservation; git diff --check.
Replace generic application and error titles with the operation that triggered
the message. Reuse translated dialog titles for validation and render errors,
preserve the current submodel naming action, and label edge-color prompts.
Require callers of the shared Blender message helper to provide a title so
installation, updates, extraction, settings, and output messages identify
their action instead of falling back to a product name.
Refresh all eight language catalogs and supply new title translations as
unfinished drafts with provenance comments. Preserve existing translations
and their review status, with drafts still included in release catalogs.
Validation: Qt 6.10 debug build; source and catalog coverage for all 2,058
active messages; existing translation preservation and generic-title checks;
runtime translation and plural checks; git diff --check.
Use consistent capitalization for labels, dialog titles, acronyms, and
product names. Correct question-mark spacing, sentence boundaries, missing
punctuation, and run-together sentences in prompts and Blender messages.
Refresh the language catalogs without discarding existing translations.
Retain previous source text and mark affected translations unfinished so
translators can review the wording changes while drafts remain visible.
Validation: Qt 6.10 debug build, catalog source coverage and preservation
checks, runtime translation and plural checks, and git diff --check.
Translate Blender defaults after translators are installed and give the
spinner its own translation context. Translate remaining page and minifigure
labels, and use Qt numerus messages for count-dependent text. Embed an English
plural catalog so missing locale translations still have correct singular
and plural forms.
Refresh all eight language catalogs and fill missing translations as
unfinished drafts with provenance comments. Preserve existing translation
text, placeholders, markup, internal identifiers, and combo/filter syntax.
Keep nonempty unfinished translations visible in release catalogs.
Validation: Qt 6.10 debug build; warning-free lupdate extraction; active
catalog keys match all 2,044 source messages; catalog integrity checks;
runtime checks of spinner and 228 Blender default strings plus 472 plural,
draft visibility, placeholder, and English fallback cases.
UI labels mixed part and piece terminology, several messages left asset and file names unquoted, and Blender preferences contained British spellings and typos.
Use piece terminology throughout displayed text, quote names and paths in messages and tooltips, and standardize US English spelling. Keep status-bar names and the properties-dialog title unquoted. Update translation source keys while preserving existing translations, settings keys, and external format names.
Validation: macOS Qt 6.10 Debug build passed without warnings; XML, translation-key, placeholder, and whitespace checks passed.
Queue model geometry builds and mesh conversion on workers so project opening can return after parsing. Keep complete-asset waits for previews and output, and show project loading progress in the status bar.
Preserve live pieces when project names overlap, restore mappings after failed loads, and include detached pieces in buffer and stud-style updates.
The menu entry Import->Set Inventory was translated incorrectly. Fix that.
And while we are here, replace the anglicism "set" by "Bausatz" everywhere
and fix a few glitches in the inventory dialog's texts.
