468236 - Bunch of linebreaks in Privacy prefpane hint text

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Camino Graveyard :: Preferences, defect)

Description

[Markus Amalthea Magnuson]

I found this string in the pivacy prefpane nib while translating 2.0a1:

"You can edit your Keychain with the Keychain Access application. Although most websites allow saving of passwords and user names, some do not.\n\n\n"

Why are there three extra linebreaks at the end? Are they supposed to be there?

Comment 1

[Stuart Morgan]

Probably not, but they don't hurt anything. Does it matter?

Comment 2

[Markus Amalthea Magnuson]

Nah, except confusing the "Size to fit" method (and the HIG guidelines) in Interface Builder.

Comment 3

[Stuart Morgan]

If someone wants to spin a new nib for this (on Tiger) before l10n freeze we can land it, otherwise we'll try to remember to catch it next time we change the nib.

Translators are certainly welcome to remove the newlines in their nibs, so that they can size to fit while making any necessary size adjustments.

Twiddling the flags and keywords for tracking, but as Stuart said, we won't block on this since it can be fixed on the l10n team side.
