P: In-program help for Remove > Delete shows "Backspace" instead of "Delete" on Mac

In LR 14.0, the in-program help for Remove on Mac incorrectly shows Backspace as the shortcut for Delete. On Mac, the key is called "Delete":

For example, the Mac Library Shortcuts shows the correct name of that key (Delete):

 

JohnREllis_1-1728947700870.png

 

The offending line in TranslatedStrings is:

 

"$$$/AgDevelop/Menu/Photo/DeleteSpot/Key=Backspace"

 

It should be:

 

"$$$/AgDevelop/Menu/Photo/DeleteSpot/Key=Delete"

 

 

LR's convention is that occurrences of "Delete" in the help shortcuts in TranslatedStrings get translated to "Backspace" on Windows. For example:

 

"$$$/AgLibrary/Help/Shortcuts/Remove_from_Library/Key=Delete"

 

Windows LR help translates that Delete to Backspace before displaying it.

 

But it appears for the Remove > Delete help, even after you change "Backspace" to "Delete", LR isn't calling the code to do that translation.

 

So two mistakes: 1) TranslatedStrings has "Backspace" instead of "Delete", and 2) The code for translating "Delete" to "Backspace" on Windows isn't being called.
