Bug ID: 428026
Summary: Font chooser tooltip incorrectly uses title case (also
for non-English locales)
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.20.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_fonts
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: k...@huftis.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When hovering over the ‘select font’ buttons, the tooltip is shown using
automatically generated title case. This is incorrect for most non-English
languages.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the font dialog.
2. Hover the mouse pointer over one of the ‘select font’ buttons (e.g. the
‘Fixed with’ one).
3. Observe the tooltip (see attached screenshot).
OBSERVED RESULT
The tooltip is shown in title case. For example, using the Norwegian Nynorsk
locale, the tooltip is shown as ‘Vel «Fast Breidd»-Skrift’.
EXPECTED RESULT
The tooltip should use normal case. For example, using the Norwegian Nynorsk
locale, the ‘Breidd’ should be shown as ’breidd’ and ‘Skrift’ as ‘skrift’.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20201014
KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.75.0
Qt Version: 5.15.1
Kernel Version: 5.8.14-1-default
OS Type: 64-bit

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This is *not* an error in the translation. In the translation for Norwegian
Nynorsk, the string ‘Select %1 Font...’ is translated as ‘Vel «%1»-skrift …’
(i.e., with a lowercase ‘skrift’). (The quotation marks are needed since
otherwise the resulting string, ‘Vel Fast breidd-skrift’, would be
ungrammatical. It really should have been ‘Vel fastbreiddeskrift’, which is not
possible to write with current implementation.)
