[Bug 625188] [NEW] Adding translation comments for effects

 

Public bug reported:

Hi, this should rather go on a wishlist than in bugs:

It would be nice to have some comment/description for some of the
effects/transitions in the translation catalog, especially those which
have a sort of 'proper names'. Of course translators should test the
effects and do some googling, but just a bit more information can ease
the process. Doesn't have to be very verbal (fr: buccolique) and maybe
the description could be reused in the 'List of Effects' in the manual
(which does not contain the newest effects in trunk).

Example in a .po file:

#. Translators: replaces background by defining a particular color as transparent.
#.  Also called 'bluescreening'.
#. 
#: /home/jonathan/openshot/openshot/effects/chroma_key.xml
msgid "Chroma Key"
msgstr "Bakgrunnsútskipti (Chroma Key)"

Just my 2 cents,
