German Translation And Spelling Errors

[Anonymous]

Mike Grau from the excellent Autodesk Support team as asked me to also create this post here. I've submitted a bunch of errors to the German product forum, already, so I just keep adding here.

• "Schieben" instead of "Drücken"
• "Entformungsschräge" or "Flächenverjüngung" instead of "Entwurf"
• "Skalieren" instead of "Maßstab"
• "Mit Silhoutette teilen" instead of "Silhouette geteilt"

In both cases would be "Besser" better instead of "Erweitert" and "Freigegeben"

@promm maybe the idea hidden here is - add a simple tool for users to report translation issues

Frankly, I stumbled upon "Entwurf" (Draft) in the menu when I started with Fusion 360. @Tarek_K from the German forum pointed me here.

And now I see these translation errors have been reported two years ago! And would take probably seconds to fix.

Assuming that other non-English translations are as "good" as the German one, it would perfectly make sense to have either

- a tool to report (and automatically process) translation errors

- or at least have a standard way to report translation suggestions in the forums/requests. 

As they have only little audience, compared to technical feature requests, they will get lost here. I wouldn't vote for a French wording improvement either, I cannot even judge if it was right.

Best regards
