UseExternalLanguageResource

ITcEventView

This property sets or returns if the Event View uses en external or the standard internal String Tables. The event view will reffer to its threads LCID when deciding in what language e.g. the column header it will be displayed. The TcEventview currently supports German, Englis (U.S.), French, Italian and Spanish. If your prefferred language is none of those, you may set this property to true. The TcEventView will then search the folder '%TwinCat\Resource' for the file 'TcEventViewLangRes.xml' in this file you may specify additional languages. This sample configuration shows you how to set up your XML resource.
