If you have any idea on how to solve this problem, or have any info to
add to it, please do so. The problem is basically how to do a tooltip in
nautilus properly, like
"Display this location with the %s"
where %s gets replaced with the name of a viewer, for example "Music
Viewer". One suggestion was to change it to
"Display this location with %s"
to solve the problem with the "the", but this still has the problem of
casing: using uppercase in the middle of a sentence when the word is not
a name is broken in for example Swedish. In this case the translation of
"Music Viewer" would be "Musikvisare" and the composed message would
look like:
"Visa denna plats med Musikvisare"
which would not be pretty in Swedish; it should be "Visa denna plats med
musikvisare" with a small m.
I wonder if people have any good solution to this and if this design
poses problems in other languages too.
Christian
