Translator: list of "favourite" languages in the top of the language list
-
The list of languages is just huge, and it takes time to find the 3-4 languages i usually use.
Would be very practical and time-saving if the user could choose a number of favourite languages that could be always in the top of the list (shown as a separate "Favourite Languages" top-category, and all other languages follow below). -
yup, I'd appreciate this too since I have to operate in three different languages and "auto-detect" doesn't always catch up.
-
@agych To save any user input, how about listing the most recently used languages at the top?
Then users will only need to scroll down the long list to add another language to the recently used list. An X button could be used to delete languages from the recently used list.
-
Both ideas are good. Favorites also could be without user input by using a pin icon that would appear if the right part of language line is hovered. Both as well can be used at the same, but implementing any of those ideas will be great.
-
I need one as well. I'm using a few of languages and it's inconvenient to scroll every time.
So, I would like to have an opportunity to set the language list, to remove unnecessary elements for me.

A must have feature!
I am thinking about 2 approaches:-
A dedicated setting for Translate Panel where you can add your list of languages and remove those you don't use. Maybe there should be a search field too.

Ability to pin languages by a long tap from the list (this is for android version)

@Pesala said in Translator: list of "favourite" languages in the top of the language list:
The trick is that manual favorites keep their order (whatever logic that uses), while "recently used" or "mostly used" change that order and when one is constantly working with the same set of options, the fact that these change order randomly gets annoying really fast.

@sirien-neiris this is nitpicking in my opinion.
Most people are going to use a few languages at most. I will agree if you are dealing with 10+ languages this can get annoying. But if there is only 3 or 4 languages being used, it is not a big deal. Your eyes can find the language you need instantly with only a few choices at the top.
however the answer to this is simple... just keep the MRU languages in sorted order.
Every language the user clicks, gets added to MRU.. and MRU is displayed in sorted order.. however the problem with this is it would require yet another setting checkbox because for many people (as should be the default), it should be a pure MRU list (not sorted)
