Feature Description

Within it, they can set up translations for specific words for all languages and be able to set up which languages to display via the Command Editor within the project.

Designer Functionalities

Translation Editor

To open the Translation Editor, go to Tools > Translation Editor or select Open Translation Editor… on the Toolbar. In the Translation Editor, English will appear by default. Users can add new Keys and as many languages as needed for the project. Users will be able to delete any unused keys, copy and paste them, or cut and paste them, and will be able to add any Keys that are missing within the Translation Editor.

Keys

Keys are used as the master for the translation. Once a key is set, the user can set translations for what languages it needs to be translated. Keys must be established for the Translation Editor to translate any words set within it.

Languages

Users can set any language within the Translation Editor. Simply Double click on the Add Language… text, and the user can begin adding a new Language to the Translation Editor. The current limit of languages is 20. Users will also be able to edit or delete these languages if they are no longer needed within the project.

Multi-Language String

To have a text box be able to use any translations from the Translation Editor, users must set each text box to be a Multilanguage String. Hover over the Text field in the Text Box Basic Properties to accomplish this. Click the Link icon. This will open a window named Binding Properties; click on the Expression tab. Under this, click the Expression field and select Multilanguage String. This will allow the string to be translated to different languages when the translation language changes during runtime. Without it being selected as a Multilanguage String, it will not translate.

Set Translation Language

Users can use the command Set Translation Language within the Command Editor to change the Translation Language. Any object that can have an action can have this command set. Users can set one language for each button.
