MC-200023Different languages labels GUI rescaling is broken
How to replicate
Settings:
- Language is set to [some particular list of bug-covered languages]. In my case it was LOLCAT (Kingdom of Cats) or Spanish (Espana).
- GUI Scale is set to Auto (sometimes other options work too).
Then try doing this:
- You can just go into windowed mode and experiment with the game's window size while in Controls menu. Spanish and LOLCAT labels get pushed outside the game's borders. English (US) language passes this rescaling test fantastically - it adapts the font size to fit everything in the menu just fine.
It is fixable in Windowed mode by stretching the game window to make it wider, but you can't do anything in the Fullscreen.

Thank you for your report!
However, this issue is Invalid.
You have posted an issue related to a translation of the game, which are not tracked on the bug tracker. The issue here is that the translations provided by the community are too long.

It's not exactly a "long translation" problem. The translated labels could be twice as big as original, however the problem is that the game ignores their length (as seen in screenshots) and doesn't rescale accordingly. This is what appears to require a fix.
Plus, haven't you considered making the buttons bigger or, perhaps, resizing everything down when not everything fits? Here's an issue from 2013 and it still lives to this* day:
