[Qgis-developer] Comment on a GUI requested

[Tim Sutton]

Hi Gavin

Sorry I couldnt reply to this earlier. In some locales this approach
may lead to issues. For example I run QGIS in Brazillian Portuguese
mode and the translation of some strings is quite long:

This can probably be addressed by a) wrapping labels or b) getting
translators to use a shorter string (Qt has some mechanism for giving
instructions for translators automatically).

Regards

Tim
