Spanish Named Folders?!

Posted by Andrew Clark on January 27, 2019 at 4:38 am

This is strange. Has anybody else noticed these folders?

I found folders with Spanish names (which I did not create). The folders are empty. When I do a “Get Info” on them, in the “Name & Extension” section, it has the English names of the Spanish named folder.

Here is the locations of where the folders are:

/Applications/Final Cut Pro.app/Contents/PlugIns/MediaProviders/MotionEffect.fxp/Contents/Resources/PETemplates.localized/Effects.localized

FOLDERS:
360°
Ojo de pez cont. hasta 360° – Back-to-back Fisheye to 360°.localized
Ojo de pez hasta 360º – Fisheye to 360°.localized

BASICS
Colorear – Colorize.localized
Matiz/Saturación – Hue/Saturation.localized
Retransmisión segura – Broadcast Safe.localized
Tinte – Tint.localized

COLOR
Conversión HDR – HDR Conversion.localized

DISTORTION
Planeta pequeño – Little Planet.localized

MODULACION (Keying.localized)
Máscara – Mask.localized
Máscara de círculo – Circle Mask.localized
Máscara de degradado – Vignette Mask.localized
Máscara de imagen – Image Mask.localized
Máscara degradada – Graduated Mask.localized

It does not seem to be affecting FCPX or MOTION … so far.

Is this normal or is something not right here?

I see those as well, no issues. Appears to be normal.

What are you doing in the bowels of the .app bundle anyway?
On second thought, never mind. I don’t need to know. ;^)

** Haaa!!! Actually I was trying to see all the Content Folders that I might be able to create a Symbolic Link to/for. Reason being, to get back more of my SSD storage space. But it seems, upon more Googling and testing it myself, that there might be an issue in doing so with the APFS format and/or Mojave and/or something I did wrong.

Quite interesting though … and a bit bewildering too!!!

Maybe the build of the plugin you downloaded was compiled by someone at the vendor who had their system set to Spanish localization.

My system is set to Spanish, and I have to use a third-party app to open certain applications in English so my collaborators don’t end up with Spanish-named exports, or for example, e-mail replies with quotation headers in Spanish.

Hi Jeff –

Haven’t loaded any “plugins”.

It’s no big deal and not effecting my computer … so far. Just curious about it.

Though it is amusing to see those folders.
