In this screenshot:

The 'In use' label can also read "On" or "Off". Ligado and Desligado
will fit in there without a problem.

Cheers

Thanks for the information!

Hey Rafael,

a better place to ask this question is probably the gnome-i18n mailing
list where all the translators will be able to help you with this.

That was my primary option, but I thought that maybe no one in there would know about this particular detail. I'll try in there next time.

Cheers,
