Maximum languages was created by syanes
I need to translate a survey into 7 languages. I have no problem adding them in "Additional languages", but then in "Survey text elements" there are only a maximum of 5.
Is there an option to show them all? (other than quick-translaton, please).
Thank you very much.

As usual, the question: Which version of LS?
In 3.22.2. I see
And in 4.1.11. I see
and at the far right "More languages". Clicking this shows a drop-down with teh rest.
And in quick translation I also see all languages.

Hi, it is strange that it is the fifth language that doesn't appear.
Did you try to select a different language - not portuguese?
Like Russian and Turkish. That would set Spanish on fifth place.
You have to try to find out about the issue, so the developers might have a better clue..

4.1.18 might contain bugs that your version 4.1.11 didn't have.
I wouldn't expect that any release is checked for GUI issues with more than four languages.
If that would be the cause, the GUI wouldn't show the additional languages (more menu) distorted.
The meaning of the word "stable" for users

Thanks again for your responses.
I added some more languages and this is what happens: if I add Turkish and Tagalog (both start with T and therefore appear at the end of the list) I can see both languages, but Portuguese is still missing. If I add Armenian or Catalan (both appear at the beginning of the list) I can see Portuguese but not Polish!
But if I do the same thing with languages starting with P, this happens: If I add Persian no Polish appears and if I add Punjabi no Portuguese appears.
I know this doesn't seem to make sense. I don't understand what's going on.
Many thanks.

I also did some tests.
I found out that the fifth language, the one that could be behind the button "More languages" is not shown.
1. "Lithunian" missing
2. Removed "German" and "Danish" -> "Polish" missing

I really think we must show ALL language
Or only the current
But here : it's the worst solution we can ...
