Bug Description

mixxx-1.11.0-r3768 (A ultima versão disponivel para teste)

Os erros são:

       Nas opções do menu não aparece a descrição (ver imagen que anexei)
       Aparece 2 botões na parte superior da playlist impedindo que arraste arquivos (ver imagen que anexei)
       Na coluna a esquerda também existem itens que não aparece a descrição (ver imagen que anexei)

       Circulei os erros na imagem que anexei para facilitar o que declaro ser um bug grave.

       A imagem que envie foi tirada no sistema operacional Windows XP SP2. Para ter certeza que
se trata de um bug, removi o mixxx completamente do sistema, limpei todos os arquivos temporarios, pastas residuais e
reinstalalei e o erro continua.
       Observações: Se remover a versão r3768 e instalar uma versão mais antiga tudo isso não acontece.

                                                                            Mais uma vez minha gratidão pelo trabalho e empenho de todos os
                                                                                                           desenvolvedores do Mixxx
                                                                                                                             Atenciosamente
                                                                                                                                      Robson

"mixxx-1.11.0-r3768 (the latest version available for testing)
The errors are:
In the menu does not appear the description (see the image that I have attached). 2 buttons appear at the top of the playlist preventing drag files (see the image that I have attached). In the left column there are also items that do not appear description (see the image that I have attached). Errors circled in the picture that I have attached to facilitate declare that to be a serious bug.
The image was taken to send the operating system Windows XP SP2. To make sure that this is a bug, mixxx completely removed the system, cleaned all temporary files, folders and reinstalalei residual error and continues.
Notes: If you remove the r3768 version and install an older version of everything that happens.

Again my thanks for the work and commitment of all developers Mixxx

Some strings are currently not translated from the English original to Portuguese, your systems language. Usually this is not a problem as the untranslated strings are simply replaced by the original source text. However, as you found out, this dont work in the current revision and causes all kinds of empty spaces and misplaced buttons in the user interface.

Thanks for reporting the issue.

You can help to complete the Portuguese translation for Mixxx 1.11 following this link: https://translations.launchpad.net/mixxx/trunk/+pots/mixxx/pt/+translate?show=untranslated

@RJ
This is likely related to http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mixxxdevelopers/mixxx/release-1.11.x/revision/3762 . I wonder if the info in the wiki is wrong/outdated here. Relevant part: "for XX in res/translations/mixxx_*.ts; do lrelease -nountranslated $XX -qm res/translations/${$(basename $XX)%.*}.qm; done". According to "lrelease -help" there is no "nountranslated" option (at least in lrealease v4.8.1) . So i used "for XX in res/translations/mixxx_*.ts; do lrelease $XX -qm res/translations/${$(basename $XX)%.*}.qm; done".
Any hints?
