macOS (12.2.1), M1

Options Window and languages:


- plug-in tab with out content after language change. Requires restart OCPN
- alternative (EN-->DE): Crash when touching the plug-in tab at Options
- other crash after DE-->ES, ES-->DE or ES-->EN: plug-in tab visible, crashes selecting "settings".
Crash report see below. Is the same in both scenarios



- Settings window still English only

Hello,

Windows 10.
Regarding the change of language:

1° We should know that in the "Options/UI", it is not enough to change the language for OpenCPN to change language. We have to start by changing the PC language by going to the PC settings.
Attention, it is also necessary to change the keyboard which passes in QWERTY keyboard. We must put it back in AZERTY (usual keyboard for French users)..

2° Initial language: French. Objective: Switch to Italian.

- We change the language of the PC from French ---> Italian

- In this case, the new language is used in the core of OpenCPN. It's good.

- This language is also used in some plugins. This is good.

- But, it is not used in some other plugins. Especially with the o-charts_pi plugin.

- You have to go through the old method, go to "options/UI", change the language to Italian. But this is not enough. The Italian o-charts language file was not loaded in version 5.6.1-2. We had to find the language file in Italian version in the crowdin, build the ".mo" file and place it in the "share" folder.

Then Italian also showed up in "Options/Charts/o-charts".

When returning to the French language, it was not enough to switch the PC back to French. We had to go to "Options/UI" and return to French in OpenCPN for the ocharts_pi plugin to stop speaking in Italian.


But, I didn't have a crash.GOOD !!!

Not the case with macOS - basic system language stays as is.

Confirmed, solution in hand.

Problems with GRIB plugin
1. display particles when panning the map
2. In dual canvas mode, GRIB is displayed on the left and right side of the canvas. As far as I remember, in this mode, GRIB was displayed only on the right side of the canvas.

Performance degradation when panning ENC/CM93 is due to depth soundings, if you turn off the display of depth soundings, then the panning speed is high.

More details in the screen recording video

"2. In dual canvas mode, GRIB is displayed on the left and right side of the canvas. As far as I remember, in this mode, GRIB was displayed only on the right side of the canvas."


This is intentional, in response to some user requests. The idea is that one may want to simultaneously study different locations/difference scales, with the same GRIB file.


Alternative comments, anyone?


Thanks

Is there Debian build for armhf gtk3 buster? AFAIK you call it official build. the one which is part of backports-sloppy. And PPA Ubuntu build which is gtk2 linked is not really called official. I’d like to test gtk3 buster build of the beta.

Thanks

In this case, I think it would be functional for each of the active canvas in the GRIB control window to include an individual display of weather data types.
For example, gusts of wind from the left, and wind from the right, it's really convenient and informative than displaying the same thing in two canvases!
