<![CDATA[Should the "About Qt" dialog be translated?]]>My application is using Qt v5.4 and I have implemented support for Internationalization. This is actually working well except I have noticed that the text in the "About Qt" dialog remains in English, even when I load Danish translation files.

I am loading and installing the qt_da.qm file from Qt's installation directory and application_da.qm from my volunteer translator.

So my question is; should the "About Qt" dialog be translated or is it supposed to remain in English?

Thanks,
Chris

For Danish I have used this file from my installation for the Qt translations:
C:\Qt5.4\5.4\msvc2010_opengl\translations\qt_da.qm

And this is the 'About Qt' box I get:

Note that none of the dialog text has been translated.

To be sure the issue was not just down to the Danish translation I tried using this French translation file:
C:\Qt5.4\5.4\msvc2010_opengl\translations\qt_fr.qm

And this is the 'About Qt' box I get:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1139742/for_forum/about_fr.png
I have highlighted the text that is translated, which is just the first 2 lines of the dialog. The rest of the dialog text remains in Engligh.

This shows to me that my C++ code is correctly loading the qt_??.qm files but the results are not as I would expect. So am I using the correct translation files?

Thanks,
Chris

Yes it should be translated, at least the text is in the translation files
