In the german translation the new city dialog has a width of 754 while
the english one has a width of 570. This has annoyed me for a long
time. The attached patch shows the increase of the translation of
strings which are used in the city dialog.
The problem is known, the reason not.
BTW: As rule by the thumb German translations of English texts are about
one third bigger (570 * 1.33 = 758)...
This means that the german translation of 'Show future targets' is 28
chars longer than the original.
But this doesn't harm, does it?
I don't like it, too, but I don't see any problem...
It turns out that 'Disband if build
settler at size 1' is the problem. If it is shortened the dialog will
also get a width of 570. Since I noticed that the dialog is also
bigger in the Dutch translation I attached the patch.
I shortened the German text by 6 signs. Does this solve the "problem"?
