La periodicidad del escaparate
No existe una regla específica que determine el período de exposición de un producto en el escaparate ni su duración; hay opiniones de todo tipo. En lo que hay consenso es en que un plazo exagerado de tiempo es perjudicial para el establecimiento, ya que puede llegar a saturar y aburrir a la persona que lo observa, dejando de cumplir la utilidad para la que fue elaborado.
Non-PRO (1): Liliana Galiano
When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

how often the (shop) window should be changed
| Thanks Margaret, I certainly had no intention of translating it literally :-). I'm looking for something a bit shorter though if possible, so that the heading isn´t so long. |

liz askew
: I have visions of them physically putting in a new window. "Display" needs to be in there.

Then we're going to have to agree to disagree. I entirely agree with "window display", but "shop window" is also correct. I'm sure you must have gone "window shopping". It doesn't mean you bought windows.

You wouldn't need to repeat "window" if "window display" already appears earlier in the text...

liz askew
: I think you need "window" in there, otherwise this could be inside the shop.//yeah....sure.
