You can merge this PR in current state.

@Kuzma30 I'm not used to add translations to a project... Does the '.ts' file need to be manually edited, pointing to the exact line number, or it is automatically generated? I see there is some wip also here... https://github.com/easyw/Manipulator/pull/11 Are these two PRs based on the same method?

Hi @easyw. What is a reason do not merge translation support for your WB?)

[easyw]

@Kuzma30 sorry for delaying in reviewing this PR... I don't check often GH messages.

My issue with this PR is that I'm not familiar with the process in translation wbs.

If I understand it correctly, this PR is just a first step to start the translation process. Do you have a repository with a more advanced translation status of the wb? Then I would be more confident in merging it.

Thanks for working on this aspect, that I would like to be integrated in StepUp.

@easyw Kuzma30 participated in improving the quality of FreeCAD's GUI translations. Several of his PRs with translation improvements have been merged in the past. He lives in Ukraine. Since Ukraine has been invaded he has not been able to be contacted.

From your conversation, it seems that the code was prepared by him and has been waiting to be merged for a year. I think there is nothing to wait further. :Wink:

@easyw I have prepared some links for you. If you still have some doubts or feel deficient in knowledge these posts will certainly be helpful. :wink:
