After translations on weblate are submitted, the generated "*.ts" files will be integrated into LibreCAD's next builds, pending the maintainer integration of those files.

It's still a good idea to remind the maintainer (LordOfBikes) in the forum that you have added translations.

qm files contain the translation data, but the application also needs to be updated too, so LibreCAD should also be rebuilt (with ts files) to see your translations.

I have started translating LibreCAD UI into Thai on Weblate. I have 2 questions:

1) Do I have to take more action to get it included in LibreCAD source tree?

2) As a Qt-based translation newbie, how can I test my translation on my local machine? I have tried "releasing" the translation from Qt5 Linguist and copying the output .qm file to /usr/share/librecad/qm/librecad_th.qm, where translations of other languages reside, but the app is still untranslated when opened.

Thanks in advance.
