Two full language translations landed for Open WebUI, and touch users get back the file preview area with zoom buttons gone on coarse pointers.

The Polish (pl-PL) translation is now complete [1], joining a full Simplified Chinese (zh-CN) translation for Open WebUI v0.11.1 [2]. Both are localization-only pull requests targeting the dev branch, so no behavior changes; non-English users see parity with the English UI. The Chinese PR was the first submission from its contributor; Polish work had a prior PR closed for conflicts.

File preview zoom buttons, the plus and minus bar, no longer appear on touch devices [3]. The check uses pointer type rather than viewport width, so a narrow desktop window keeps the buttons while a phone does not. Touch users still pinch-to-zoom and get the full preview area back.

Two smaller fixes are in development: an underline-marked extension now has a renderer [4], and the Folder modal close button received an accessible name per WCAG 4.1.2 [5]. Screen reader users now hear a meaningful label instead of an unnamed control.
