armoros Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I know i dont have even the basic skill to script and i should stay to the basics for the moment...but it just came in my mind and wanted to ask how you can make a script and have an option to change the language of gui controls ? from english to greek i.e. [font="verdana, geneva, sans-serif"] [/font] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
water Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Do it like most applications do. Create a language file for every language you want to support containging all text and read the file on startup or when the user changes the language. I'm sure you'll find some examples on the forum if you search for "multilingual" etc. My UDFs and Tutorials: Spoiler UDFs:Active Directory (NEW 2022-02-19 - Version 1.6.1.0) - Download - General Help & Support - Example Scripts - WikiExcelChart (2017-07-21 - Version 0.4.0.1) - Download - General Help & Support - Example ScriptsOutlookEX (2021-11-16 - Version 1.7.0.0) - Download - General Help & Support - Example Scripts - WikiOutlookEX_GUI (2021-04-13 - Version 1.4.0.0) - DownloadOutlook Tools (2019-07-22 - Version 0.6.0.0) - Download - General Help & Support - WikiPowerPoint (2021-08-31 - Version 1.5.0.0) - Download - General Help & Support - Example Scripts - WikiTask Scheduler (NEW 2022-07-28 - Version 1.6.0.1) - Download - General Help & Support - Wiki Standard UDFs:Excel - Example Scripts - WikiWord - Wiki Tutorials:ADO - WikiWebDriver - Wiki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrewManNH Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 One program that I can think of off the top of my head is SciteJump from guiness, you could look at the source of it to see how he's doing it and go from there. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day. Teach a programmer to debug and he can do his work for a lifetime - by Chirag GudeHow to ask questions the smart way! I hereby grant any person the right to use any code I post, that I am the original author of, on the autoitscript.com forums, unless I've specifically stated otherwise in the code or the thread post. If you do use my code all I ask, as a courtesy, is to make note of where you got it from. Back up and restore Windows user files _Array.au3 - Modified array functions that include support for 2D arrays. - ColorChooser - An add-on for SciTE that pops up a color dialog so you can select and paste a color code into a script. - Customizable Splashscreen GUI w/Progress Bar - Create a custom "splash screen" GUI with a progress bar and custom label. - _FileGetProperty - Retrieve the properties of a file - SciTE Toolbar - A toolbar demo for use with the SciTE editor - GUIRegisterMsg demo - Demo script to show how to use the Windows messages to interact with controls and your GUI. - Latin Square password generator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

water Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 The is multi-lingual too. You can set the length of the GUI controls depending on the language. Some languages need more space as others for the same content.
