Description
Hello, I noticed that while the draw.io interface is translated into Russian, the search functionality for shapes and images is not localized.
For example:
Searching for "Куб" or "Квадрат" returns no results
Searching for "Cube" or "Square" works as expected
This creates an inconsistent user experience for Russian-speaking users, since the UI is localized but search still relies on English keywords.
I would like to propose adding Russian localization support for shape and image search.
I am a native Russian speaker with a strong command of English, and I would be willing to help with:
- Translating shape and image keywords
- Verifying existing translations
- Contributing a mapping between Russian and English search terms
Please let me know if this would be useful and how I can contribute.
Thank you.

Research direction
Start by locating the shape and image search keyword data and the Russian localization resources in the draw.io codebase. Verify the reported Куб and Квадрат searches against Cube and Square, then confirm that Russian keywords return the same relevant results without breaking existing searches.
