Tech/Engineering - Computers: Software | | Dutch term or phrase: Kies via de drop-down tabel kan de manier van lijst sortering. | | This is from a software manual. It is from a Belgian (Flemish) company. I cannot make hear nor tail of this sentence. So far the best I can come up with is: "Choosing from the drop-down table can sort the way of listing" Any other suggestions? Belgian or Dutch, the original does not seem to make good sense - to me. |
