Strange layout in bottom buttons

It looks like text wraps because it is too long, this ends up looking a bit off. Perhaps you can try scaling it down to fit the monitor width.

Localization is hard

On one hand, you'd want a unified design with the same font size, spacing and kerning, on the other hand... Well, this happens

Same font size between menu items, sure, but not between languages. I'd be perfectly fine with a smaller font size so as to accomodate the entire text. It doesn't have to be hardcoded either, I think.

Same size across the board would be ideal, but that obviously can't happen. Could also try and find different translations that are shorter

Good idea, I contributed a couple

You can deactivate this text in the settings. I did the same because the German translation has the same issue.

It has been fixed for German though.

Thanks, in the meantime I switched to english.

there is an issue on github about that

Thanks, I'll chime in

At least center it maybe?

I agree, in French language the bottom text are wrapped up for 1 character, same here.

I suggested alternate words for the two problematic entries, what do you think ?

Good, but the old text with smaller font is pretty good too, I'll vote for the smaller font
