[Bug 1692843] [NEW] Improvements for some English strings

 

Public bug reported:

Running through the current de.po file I noticed some strings that may
need some improvement and/or correction:

 - - - - -

Save changes to the panorama before closing?

-> Save changes to the project (file) before closing?

 - - - - -

in Preferences -> Filenames

The line 
 %directory  - folder name (based on first image file)\n

should IMHO get an improved description like this:
 %directory  - folder name (based on location of first image file)\n

 - - - - -

Save changes to the panorama before opening an other project?
If you load an other project without saving, your changes since your last save will be discarded.

-> instead of "panorama" we should use "project file" instead
-> "another" instead of "an other"
-> you without 'r' in "since you last saved the file" 

 - - - - -

One "Tip of the Day" should get some addition

Current string: 
Rotating the camera around the entrance pupil (sometimes also called "nodal point") avoids parallax errors and makes panorama creation a lot easier.

my proposal: 
Rotating the camera around the entrance pupil of the lens (sometimes incorrectly called "nodal point") avoids parallax errors and makes panorama creation a lot easier. The Panotools wiki <http://wiki.panotools.org/NPP> helps you to find the correct point for your lens.

 - - - - -

There is a typo (BE instead of AE) somewhere in the .po file:

colour 
-> color

 - - - - -

Another typo (plural needed in this case):

Only use control points between image selected in preview window.
-> images

 - - - - -

And where is the string "Feature descriptor:" used? I suspect the german
translation is wrong or inaccurate but cannot identify where it is shown
in the GUI.
