Classic Compact Options - Ver. 4.0.10b1

Posted 31 July 2009 - 02:02 PM

French update is in progress, while testing I found the Options dialog should be resizeable to content, because we are generally more verbose in French (and some other languages as well) than in English

see screenshot

I've discovered the verbose issue when trying to update AMO with what had been provided.

Since the short descriptions on AMO are limited to 250 characters now. Some editorial decisions will have to be made. For instance the phrase about supporting black backgrounds can be dropped from the list of features.

I'll try to work on making a resizeable option panel. Otherwise, if there is a size issue with the option panel, I can increase the size of the option panel if necessary.

By the way Twitter must really be a pain for verbose languages.

should be something like
<dialog id="myDialog" title="My Dialog"
xmlns="http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"
onload="window.sizeToContent();"


(I am not sure, just watching mdc tutos)

As there was some confusion between the two versions, I deleted the previous one (1.2), all locales are zipped here below if they can help.

would you please show us a screenshot of what a "chiseled" border could be, I have some problems to find the French equivalent, none of the usual translation sources I consulted seems to fit. Thanks

Chiseled borders have a single pixel dark line (top/left) next to a single pixel white line (bottom/right) this gives the appearance of a grove being "chiseled" out of the background. Prior to Windows XP (e.g. Win2000), Windows made heavy use of chiseled borders. An unstyled horizontal rule (HR) HTML tag also uses the chiseled effect.

French version set as released and correct but the amo long description is not tested, I added <pre> and </pre> but am not sure at all everything will fit the amo real fields.

I suggest the long description items, in the case of this extension, should be in a simple .txt (utf-8) file for better usability. My 2 eurocents.

I updated Polish localization of Classic Compact on AMO with your corrections, but I can't update Classic Compact Options on AMO because AMO now only allows 250 characters for add-on summary and the PL add-on summary is 344 characters in length. Basically I need a Polish summary that adequetly describes what Cassic Compact Options does in a much shorter fashion. The existing translation is:

I'm extensions developer, but forgot about this limitation. Below is reduced to 245 characters summary.
