Thank you for the wonderful software.

“Yes, No, Cancel” has been replaced by “Yes, Number, Cancel”.

Sad :( We've hired еру translator for started Paintstorm version(then we've added translations), but now with new functions, we use Google translator.

So Google translator translate 'no' from English as "番号" Bangō
Also, from Russian "No" (нет) it's translate as "いや" ... o the ovwerwise translation is YES!!! да

Does something wrong with Google or with Japanese? :))))

Thank you for your reply.
>"番号" Bangō
The correct translation is "いいえ" iie .
The rest of the translation is almost correct.

Thanks for the great paint software. It is really irreplaceable software.

On a Japanese bulletin board talking about Paintstorm.
"Save when finished? [Discard] is displayed as [Number].
I am surprised every time. "

"Ah, did you translate No into numbers instead of No?"

I am using Japanese.txt by changing 666 lines myself.
#666#いいえ#No
However, many Japanese users are confused when No = number(番号).

It's a mistake on google translate. If you try to translate 番号 to english it'll tell you it means number. That is a damn weird error...

Oh right, in english 'No' is sometimes used as an abbreviation of 'Number'. For example: Item No. 5.

That's probably where the error cmae from but it's still weird... Because it defines no as a negatory answer rather than as a number if you read the additional info below the translations.

Yes. Google mistranslation.
The problem is that this translation confuses users in the Japanese market. They want a translation fix for this part.
Just open Japanese.txt and translate one line manually.
