Ren'Py Translation problem [solved]

[JBZ]

How can I translate the following string into renpy?

label _("Name Font Size: %s" % (nfs_min + persistent.nfs))

tl file:

old "Name Font Size: %s"
new "Schriftgröße für Name: %s"

It does not work. Is there a solution for this?

tl file:

old "Name Font Size: %s"
new "Schriftgröße für Name: %s"

It does not work.

Isn't there a translate missing somewhere ?

The label being properly wrote to expect a translation, you should find the translation entry in one of the tl files generated by Ren'py.

The SDK does not generate the translation entry for me. So I wrote the entry myself.

translate german strings:
    old "Dialogue Font Size: %s"
    new "Schriftgröße für Name: %s"

Without %s it works. The problem is a string with %s.

The "problem" was that the text string is just "Name Font Size: %s"

So the right way to code it in order to be extracted by Ren'Py SDK would be

label _("Name Font Size: %s") % (nfs_min + persistent.nfs)

This way your old / new statements in the tl file will contain the actual string and it will be translated

Perfect!

Wow, good catch.
Haven't noted that the substitution was part of the _() what effectively lead Ren'py to search for "Name Font Size: WHATEVER VALUE" in place of "Name Font Size: %s".
