Does anybody knows a trick to bypass or fix this problem ( Bugreport: 08641 ):
When you use the quick add replace function in 2.05 to enter answer options for an additional language, the base language answer options are also changed.

It's not a workaround, it's the best solution actually:

With 3 languages
USe :
Code:
A1;A1 en;A1 fr;A1 de
A2;A2 en;A2 fr;A2 de
A3;A3 en;A3 fr;A3 de

The only other solution can only be "send an alert".

Because you can replace 3 answers with 4 answers (or 2) , and we can never knwo if 1st answer is the same than 1st old answer.

Example : You have:
Code:
Y;Yes;Oui
N;No;Non

And you want:
Code:
Y;Yes;Oui
MB;Maybe;Peut être
N;No;Non;

We can not just replace the language shown.

Suppose I have programmed survey in English and now I need to do translation in french.
#I open answer list and switch to French tab .
#Copy French answer labels from Excel and paste using quick add popup.

The problem is the English answer labels also gets changed to French. Ideally only French label should change because I am working in French tab.
