Hallo plc-user!

I just saw your last commits, many thanks to push an very clean Catatan translation PR without noise off XML random attibutes and font family changes, very good job! \o/ nomicons/wink

If you could share your scripts for future translations we can't solving, I would be very grateful.
Yes, I know! It was very simple for end users to use the QET Element editor GUI to add new translations since they could edit .elmt files manually with a text editor.

Until further notice, we advise our translators to translate the ~ 8,500 elements in the official collection by opening each *.elmt file one by one in a good text editor and adding their translations of elements between the XML tags <names> </names> in the following style:
<name lang="de">Energietechnik</name>
<name lang="fr">Energie</name>
<name lang="ar">طاقة</name>
<name lang="en">Energy</name>
<name lang="cs">Energie</name>
<name lang="pl">Energia</name>
<name lang="es">Energía</name>
<name lang="it">Energia</name>
<name lang="el">Ενέργεια</name>
<name lang="nl">Energie</name>
<name lang="ru">Сантехника</name>
<name lang="da">Energi teknik</name>

I think it is easier for new contributors or translators to use QET's integrated editor to get a vector view of the symbol represented in order to better translate the element itself!

Salut Laurent,

when we want the fonts to be replaced correctly, we need to include the quote-signs into replacement!
For example:
From the original Oldtimer-Elements in the other thread, we find these font-descriptions:

Noto Sans ExtraBold,10,-1,0,81,0,0,0,0,0,Regular
Noto Sans ExtraBold,5,-1,0,81,0,0,0,0,0,Regular
Noto Sans ExtraBold,6,-1,0,81,0,0,0,0,0,Regular
Noto Sans ExtraBold,7,-1,0,81,0,0,0,0,0,Regular
Noto Sans ExtraBold,9,-1,0,81,0,0,0,0,0,Regular
Sans Serif,10,-1,0,50,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,10,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,12,-1,0,50,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,12,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,15,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,30,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,3,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,4,-1,0,50,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,4,-1,5,0,0,0,0,0,0,normal
Sans Serif,4,-1,5,25,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,4,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,5,-1,5,25,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,5,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,6,-1,0,50,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,6,-1,5,0,0,0,0,0,0,normal
Sans Serif,6,-1,5,25,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,6,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,6,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0,Regular
Sans Serif,7,-1,0,50,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,7,-1,5,25,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,7,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,8,-1,5,0,0,0,0,0,0,normal
Sans Serif,8,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,9,-1,0,50,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,9,-1,5,0,0,0,0,0,0,normal
Sans Serif,9,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
Sans Serif,9,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0,Regular

Just looking at the last two lines we see double ... but not quite:
One font-string ends with a number and the other font-string also includes ",Regular".
If we only replace this

Sans Serif,9,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0

by this

Liberation Sans,9,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0,Regular

the last line would be changed to

Liberation Sans,9,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0,Regular,Regular

what would be wrong!

Inserting an additional element-name is another topic...

Hallo plc-user

so maybe this command work

find . -name "*.elmt" -exec  sed -i -e 's/Sans Serif,/Liberation Sans,/g' {} \;

Bonjour Laurent,
Je m'appelle Antoni Mxxxxxxxxxxxx et j'ai traduit Qelectrotech en
catalan. Je suis professeur de formation professionnelle à une
trentaine de kilomètres au nord de Barcelone, sur la côte, en Catalogne.
J'utilise Qelectrotech pour enseigner à mes élèves la réalisation de
schémas électriques, pneumatiques et hydrauliques. Je leur enseigne
également Eplan. L'apprentissage initial avec Qelectrotech est beaucoup
plus simple et me permet de leur enseigner Eplan après . Par la suite, ils
ou leurs entreprises feront le choix.
D'autre part, mes étudiants et moi avons pris une photo pour remercier la
communauté Qelectrotech de son travail. C'est un excellent outil
pédagogique pour nous.
Cordialement
Antoni

Merci grandement au nom de l’ensemble de la communauté QET à toi Antoni pour ton enseignement et aussi pour ton travail de traduction, merci aussi à tes étudiants qui ont pris la pose avec toi chaleureusement, nomicons/wink ils seront nos futurs ingénieurs dans l'industrie.

L’ensemble de la communauté QET vous souhaites de passer de bonnes fêtes de fin d'année afin de vous reposer, de profiter de ces moments chaleureux avec vos familles et vos proches.

Et!, si vous en avez encore la force! de vous amusez pendant ces fêtes... pensez à faire de beaux schémas de vos futurs prototypes d'ingénieries, pendant que vous les avez encore en tête...

Q'importe le logiciel, QET ou Eplan, sans oublier FreeCad, KiCad, LibreCad, QCad, etc... dessinez, concevez et réalisez vos rêves d’ingénierie... les plus fous ... pour un monde meilleur!

Enjoy! nomicons/wink

Best regards,
Laurent

As a new user you should use QET 0.100-dev to be able to use Liberation-fonts, so that your Elements and Plans are compatible with other systems and users!

If someone can write a good changelog,maybe with Ai? I can release the new version 0.100 and replace the old version 0.90, which does not work well. and have many bugs fixed since .

This work can be very easy for those who are proficient in AI prompts and have prepaid accounts.

What interests us is just extracting the Catalan translation strings from the diff.

See Xavier script's perl here: https://download.qelectrotech.org/qet/scripts/

BTW, we used these this perl scripts 15 years ago, now my memory fails me.

Note regarding the translation of elements: do not use the QET editor, but manually edit the elmt file using a text editor and add your country tag to the XLM file. Use spaces rather than tabs for alignment.
If you are using the QET Qt 5 editor, XML attributes will be saved randomly by default. This is a requirement requested by some to Qt 's team to avoid hacks, but in our case, the diff file is very large and incomprehensible...

Example:

<definition hotspot_x="35" hotspot_y="25" version="0.100.0" type="element" height="50" width="70" link_type="simple">
<uuid uuid="{2b9f2e91-da08-497d-b065-bd2d68d716d9}"/>

Hallo plc-user:
have you keep your script to change font family like https://github.com/qelectrotech/qelectr … c1c3d5e4e, for merging again Catalan elements translation provided by Antoni?
Like example:

find . -name "*.elmt" -exec  sed -i -e 's/Sans Serif,9,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0/Liberation Sans,9,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0,Regular/g' {} \;

@S.DEFFAUX: merci si tu peux y travailler, mais pour l'instant j'ai reçu la traduction en Catalan de Antoni des éléments:
https://download.qelectrotech.org/qet/s … nts.tar.xz

Malheureusement, le merge sur le Github casse le travail de plc-user sur les fonts j'ai donc du faire un revert:
https://github.com/qelectrotech/qelectr … 0d42cac99e
https://github.com/qelectrotech/qelectr … da3b50363a

Il faudrait faire un diff des deux dossiers celui du dépôt et de celui de la traduction afin d'extraire que les chaines des éléments dans le but d'avoir un merge propre;

exemple
<name lang="ca">Enllaç sortint</name>

Voir ces deux scripts de Xavier qui pourraient peut-etre rendre le travail de patch plus facile?
https://download.qelectrotech.org/qet/s … om_diff.sh
https://download.qelectrotech.org/qet/s … on_diff.sh

Je n'ai pas le temps ce W.E d'y travailler, si ça intéresse quelqu'un?

Hi Scorpio, how are you?
My name is Bruno, I'm from Brazil. I'd like to create a library similar to the one dtartas shared, with dimensioned and colored elements. What I want is to make some elements for Siemens PLCs, HMIs, and general Siemens components, to use in panel layouts. Do you have a brief tutorial on how to do this? I will later share my components with the community.

Hi Bruno,
My health isn't great at the moment, so I'm resting.

Hello brusteld,

The orientation of the terminal names did not seem appropriate to me for inclusion in the official collection, you need to mirror them.
BTW on 0.100 dev version you have this feature, thanks to plc-user..
Could you make some changes?

Hello brusteld,

Yours terminals isn't defined and not attached to any conductors, see the Terminal block generator button help..
Try plugin with industrial.qet example provided.

select the right type and define where the references will be placed.
You can select a different position according to its 3 types, is it complicated?

Hi Nuri,

I 'm very happy to see you again here after this long delay, welcome. nomicons/wink

Yes, Nuri, that's a good idea. AI could complement the search and replace tool (Ctrl + F) for more complex actions or modifications.

As I have never used Ai like Claude, ChatGPT or others before, I am not really in a position to give my opinion on them at this time.

Best regards,
Laurent

Edit:

Beyond implementing the chatbot in the GUI, what we also need is the ability to update the *.qet file on the fly without restarting QET after each change.

I prefer the approach of like qet_terminal_tb_generator and other plugins to make a backup and rename the project before using AI changes...

For now, for AI I'm watching from afar to see what happens...

Hallo Jürgen,

very beautiful work, thanks you Jürgen, I could put you PDF here ?: https://download.qelectrotech.org/qet/schemas_pdf/

Other diagram car https://download.qelectrotech.org/qet/s … iagram.pdf
It 's also provided in Qet 's packages.

For element sharing please provide an zip on forum, I don't understand german language on your link https://office-sso.mailbox.org/.
Btw, if you could also share the archive of ypour QET project I can push it to examples provided on all QET packages, if you want off course.

I am always surprised and delighted to see electrical systems in boats, barges and cars being renovated using QET. You are very welcome here, MacGyver fans like me nomicons/wink

If I remember correctly, the ‘thumbnail’ type was added only for the SQL database and for the Boom table in order to count only one element in entire the project with the same label.
Not the physical representation element for nomenclature list, off course is the same element!
