The previous "kontur" has been changed to "billedkant", which is much better than "kontur", but I have some comments regarding this.

 

In the English version, the command is called "Picture Border", but in the submenu, you still use "outline". I think it should be "No Border" / "Ingen kant" and "More Outline Colors" / "Flere kantfarver".

 

I also don't like the "Billedformat" and think it should be "Billedformatering". In Danish, "Billedformat" refers to the size of a picture (https://da.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billedformat).

 

The Border is translated inconsistently, so when you select a figure instead of a picture, it is still translated to kontur.

It should also be "kant" here and the tab name should be "Figurformatering" 

 

Version 1904 (11527.20004).

Jørgen

Hi @Jørgen Koch,

 

We have now investigated your reported issue and can confirm that we have updated the translation of "Billedformat" to "Billedformatering".

 

Please note that the translation of "outline" and "border" follows the source and approved Microsoft terminology. Consequently, we cannot update these unless the source is rewritten.

 

However, we appreciate you reporting this to us, so we have the opportunity to provide better texts in Danish.

 

Have a lovely day ahead.

 

Kind regards,

Marie
