Localization

The human-readable English title of this work. This is the name that will be visible in the Content Manager, Download Station and Surveyor. Username tag is required. To complement the English username, many other brands allow you to support equivalent usernames in other languages. It should be noted that the English “username” tag is mandatory and must be in English. Localized tags are optional. To complement the English description, a number of other brands allow the support of equivalent descriptions in other languages. It should be noted that the English “description” tag is mandatory and must be in English. Localized tags are optional.

The “string-table” container is a top-level config.txt file entry that is used to provide localization support, a euphemism for multilingual translations for international markets and customers. The most common location to view and find the string table is in the layout or route map file config.txt , which can be viewed from the content manager using the view config.txt tool. Industry names, tags, and other labels added to the map manually, including items such as renamed connections, will be listed in the map string table. The ‘string-table’ container (without extension) always supplies English string data.

Whenever a “string-table” container is supplied, then and only then is it also legal to provide equivalent localized variants (translated text) for one or more locales (eg “String-table-de”). It is not legal to provide a localized variant without the basic English form (ie “String-table-de” without “string-table”), nor is it legal to provide a localized variant instead of the English form (ie A ‘string-table’ which actually contains non- English text.)
