Change translation for snapping tool in spanish (confusing?)


Recommended Posts

So I was reading the snapping tool documentation and when I got to the "right click on layer → exclude from snapping" I realized somehow I had missed that feature and went looking for it. The thing is, I use the software in spanish (since that is my native language) and in spanish the tool is called "ajuste" which is translated in english to "adjustment" and while the  meaning of the word itself is not wrong, it is not a direct translation of "snap" (there is no direct translation of this word) and worse, in software the word is more often used as translation for "settings" so it gets really confusing when you see "exclude from settings/adjusments" as an option and it does not convey what it is linked to (the snapping tool). I'm also aware when you hover on the button it shows "ajuste" too but again, that word is not exactly the same thing.

Like I said before, there is no exact translation for snap, but if I were to offer a suggeston I would say "imán" (magnet). It conveys more what it is about or at the minimum it would be easier to associate.
