Working with Industrial Graphics Languages in Included Projects

Note: AVEVA Industrial Graphics is now deprecated within Plant SCADA and future releases. It will no longer be supported or maintained in future versions, monthly updates or security updates. AVEVA recommends customers cease using AVEVA Industrial Graphics within Plant SCADA runtime systems and decommission any Plant SCADA Industrial Graphics web servers from production and engineering systems. See AVEVA™ Industrial Graphics for more information.

If you use an included project that has its own translations for graphics objects, those translations will be retained. However, only languages that are configured in the active project will be available for use.

If you open an include project graphic that does not contain the default language of the active project, then the active project’s default language is added to the list of languages for that graphic and is set as the new default language. The text strings from the last saved default language for a graphic are transferred over to the new default language for the graphic.

For example, if a graphic is part of an included project that only has the French language configured and it is used by an active project where English is the default language, the French strings are transferred over to the English language when the graphic is opened, and English is made the default language for the graphic. The French language still exists for the graphic, but it will no longer be the default language.

If a graphic is part of an included project that has both English and French configured (with French as the default language), and the graphic is opened via an active project with English as the default language, the default language for the graphic will be set to English.
