Show project translated

If there is a translation file available for the project, you can display one of the language versions defined there, without overwriting the original language version of the project.

(Regard this possibility in comparison to the “real” translating of a project, which you would do with the command ‘Translate Project’, and which would mean to create a new version of the project !)

The command ‘Translate this project’ in menu ‘Project’ ‘Translate into another language’ opens the dialog ‘Translate project into another language’.

In field Translation file insert the path of the translation file, you want to use. You can receive assistance by the standard dialog for opening a file which is opened by button Browse.

In field Target language you find a selection list, which besides the entry “<Native language>” also offers the language identifiers which are defined by the currently set translation file. The original language is that one, which is currently saved with the project. (It only could be changed by a ‘Project’ ‘Translate’.) Choose one of the available languages and confirm the dialog with OK. Thereupon the project will be displayed in the chosen language, but cannot be edited in this view !

If you want to change back to viewing the project in its original language, use command ‘Switch translation’.
