[Qgis-user] Problem with transparency of GRASS raster layers and German version of QGIS

[Robert Nuske]

Hi QGISers,

I compiled QGIS 0.11 on a debian testing system and am testing it right now. 
My native language is German and my system locale settings nare according to 
that. By default I get a QGIS with a nice translated GUI. 

After loading a GRASS raster I changed its global transparency to 50% to 
create an appealing map of two raster layers. But all I got was an uniformly 
gray map (one gray value for the entire map). 

For writing this email I was looking for the right terms for the QGIS menus, 
labels, and so on and therefore changed the language within QGIS to en_US. 
From that point the whole thing worked like a charme. No problems with 
transparency with an english QGIS. But switching again to German, I once 
again got a homogenious gray map.

So there is some unwanted interaction at least between the german translation 
and the global transparency setting.


A confused German user,
