German translation of Chinese constellation maybe wrong

[clem]

Stellarium 0.11.1 / Win32

Setting the Interface to "German" and sky culture to "Chinese" shows a constellation named "Bildschirm"
Setting the Interface to "English" with the same culture shows that the constellation is originally named "Screen"

There appears to be a translation error here: a Bildschirm is a computer screen. The (folding?) screens which were used in Chinese culture would more aptly be named "Wandschirm"

I don't know much about astronomy, so there may be a reason why "Bildschirm" is used in the German version, but it appears to be an odd choice.

Hello,

When I translated this constellation name to Brazilian Portuguese, I had the same doubts than you. After searching a little, I have found out that this actually means "folding screen". Therefore, the form "Wandschirm" is the correct one. Also the form of the constellation resembles a folding screen :-)

I will change the translation.

Best regards,

Now I have changed the translation.
