Language switching in the Visualization
The language switching for texts in a visualization can be done via static or via dynamic texts, which must be provided by a file. Unicode format is only possible with dynamic texts.
How can a language switching be done:
In the configuration dialog ‘Visualization settings’
in the selection list below Language you can choose one of the languages defined in the currently used language file, which should be used as start language in online mode; for the example shown below: german and english.
A language switch in online mode is done via a visualization element. For this purpose the internal commands “INTERN LANGUAGE <language> and “INTERN LANGUAGEDIALOG” are available (see chapter “Special input possibilities for operating versions”), which can be used in the configuration dialog in category ‘Input’.
Example :
You can insert a button element which can be used to switch the visualization texts to German. For this purpose label the element with ‘German’, in configuration category ‘Input’ activate option ‘Execute program’ and define a command “INTERN LANGUAGE <language>”. “language” is to be replaced by the language shortcut used in the language file, thus for the vis-file example: “INTERN LANGUAGE german”. If the button will be operated in online mode the visualization texts will be displayed according to the entries which are available for “german” in the language file.
