[Solved] Use default string from XBMC core in addon settings - mikebzh44 - 2013-10-11
Hi.
Is it possible, in addon settings (e.g. settings.xml) to use string ID from XBMC core strings.po.
For example, in settings.xml addon file :
Code:
<setting label="14092" type="lsep"/>
<setting id="logEnabled" type="bool" label="20191" default="false"/>Because with this code, label are void
I hope it's possible because why create and translate new strings in strings.po from addon when those strings exists in strings.po from XBMC core.
Thanks.

One reason might be that it's useful for add-ons to be self-contained. We can (and probably will) change strings in core at some point, at which time your add-on will be broken, or be displaying something non-sensical.
I'm not sure if we pool strings when translating on Transifex or not - seems like it might be something that is doable?

Yes, you are right.
Using XBMC core label can give some unexpected label if XBMC team change label for a given ID.
It's better that addon use there own labels.
Thanks.
