I think that bug i mentioned is similar to the one you recently fixed that
got the offline documentation finally working in GTK3 as a difference in
the Wait args fixes it.
I improved my progress reading too by making a quick count of the unfilled
fields before starting so my total is the strings to be filled not all
items.

But i soon required another feature with the translator.
I just wanted to view the unfilled translations not have to scroll through
all of them.

So I added a checkbox called 'Hide filled' to the translator view.

Public Sub chkHideFilled_Click()

  For Each sKey As String In cvwTranslate.Keys
    cvwTranslate[sKey].Visible = If(chkHideFilled.Value,
cvwTranslate[sKey][1] = "", True)
  Next

End

Very handy :)
