Trivial patch

The screen settings application lists the available screens in a list as "Screen %d". However, the number is not part of the translatable string, this way I can't translate it correctly. I should swap the order of the number and the Screen string to translate it to the equivalent of "%d. screen".
Comment 1 Nick Schermer editbugs 2009-07-10 14:30:49 CEST
Committed including two Hz string (now like "%d Hz")
Comment 2 Nick Schermer editbugs 2009-07-10 14:31:37 CEST
Btw, only committed in trunk because 4.6 branch is in string freeze.
Comment 3 Brian J. Tarricone (not reading bugmail) 2009-07-10 19:32:18 CEST
It is?  We do sometimes change strings in the stable branch if it's worth it.  Not sure if this is worth it, though.
Comment 4 Nick Schermer editbugs 2009-07-10 19:39:47 CEST
It would be nicer to have it translated in the new way, but until now nobody complaint so I don't think it's mandory.
Comment 5 Gabor Kelemen 2009-07-10 20:10:24 CEST
Well, I don't know what is your string freeze policy, but GNOME has a decent one: If the change is necessary to fix a critical bug (like crashers, or something affecting most of the users), the change can get it.
Cosmetical things, like this particular case, however, should wait until the next release.
