Hello,

I'm trying virtaal on a sample XLIFF file. Extract :
<trans-unit id="Paragraph-57">
<source>L'implémentation de cet exemple est visualisable <g id="Hyperlink-58">ici</g>
</source>
<target>L'implémentation de cet exemple est visualisable <g id="Hyperlink-58">ici</g>
</target>
</trans-unit>
Unfortunately I can break the "g" inline tag when I fill in the target translation.
I'm trying to attach a screenshot.
I don't know if it is a not-yet-implemented feature or a stoper bug.

Have fun with Debian

thanks

Hello,

I'm not sure I understand the problem correctly.
A translator can always break the translation. I don't think it would be
useful for the translators to restrict what they can type in the msgstr
field.

For this there are some quality checks, implemented for example in
pofilters (I don't remember if these quality checks were integrated in
virtaal, but those quality checks differ from the feature of editing the
translation).

I would propose to close this bug or to change it a wishlist bug so that
the quality checks are better integrated in virtaal.

Best Regards,

The problem I've submitted about virtaal is about breaking xliff <g> or <x>
inline markup tags. Virtaal doesn't protect this inline markup. Hence the
translated document can't be rebuild from the xliff skeleton and the xliff file
written by Virtaal. This renders Virtaal unusable as an xliff v1.2 compatible
editor.

hope this helps.

Hello,

I can't work on this issue currently, but it would be nice to have an
example file so that I can see what it is about and if later releases fixe
this issue.

Could you provide an example file?

Thanks in advance.

Have a nice day all
