MESSAGE TRANSLATIONS

 Top  Previous  Next

UnForm 9.0 supports the ability to use user-selected message files for language translations of user interfaces in the following tools: Windows Server Manager, Windows Support Server, Design Tool, and Image Manager.

 

Each of these programs has a configuration .ini file that can contain a [languages] section.  This section contains lines in the format of ext=title, where ext is a file extension to use when opening the messages file.  UnForm is always supplied with English messages files with an "eng" extension.

 

The interface for each program offers a drop-down box to select a current language from those configured.  The selected language is saved for future executions.  The following table shows the configuration files that can contain the [languages] section, and the base names of the language files.
