I18N-ISSUE-240: Bad example: Hard-coded coordinates [ITS-20] http://www.w3.org/International/track/issues/240 Raised by: Norbert Lindenberg On product: ITS-20 http://www.w3.org/TR/2012/WD-its20-20121206/#motivation-its-issues Example 2 contains data that is highly inappropriate for an internationalized application: Hard-coded coordinates for user interface elements. Such coordinates would have to be changed during localization to accommodate strings that expand or shrink during translation, larger or smaller fonts used for a localized user interface, expansion or shrinkage in surrounding content, or a change in the overall directionality of the user interface. These items should be removed from the example.
