Translation: Text is truncated at 260 char. Source is longer

Postby stebi » Fri Jul 28, 2006 2:59 am

Hi,

I'm translating the dialogs (Alpha Theme). Now I'm in "MessageBox commands". But the source string is already truncated because the editor is limited to 260 chars:

"Your computer needs to be restarted before $TITLE$ Setup can continue.$NEWLINE$$NEWLINE$Please save your work in all running programs and click OK to restart your computer. Setup will resume once your computer restarts.$NEWLINE$$NEWLINE$If you click CANCEL, s"

I looked at the translation-files and there is no truncation. It seems to be a limitation of the InstallAware Translator.

Apologies for the inconvenience, this is an issue with the translator. You can work around it by opening the plain text files used in the translator in Notepad and editing directly.
