Export language data for specific objects

You can export language data for the following types of Galaxy objects:

• Visualization folder graphics

• AutomationObject templates and instances

• $InTouchViewApp templates and instances.

All graphics in an instance or template are exported.

When you export the language data for a graphic, the language data for all graphics referenced by the graphic is also exported. The exported graphics can be referenced through direct embedding or through a show graphic animation.

For example, a Galaxy has Symbol1 and Symbol2 defined in the Visualization folder. There are two instances called UserDefined1 and UserDefined2. UserDefined1 includes Symbol1. UserDefined2 includes Symbol1 and Symbol2. The instance graphic UserDefined1.Symbol1 embeds Symbol1 and Symbol2 from the Visualization folder and one instance graphic UserDefined2.Symbol1. If you select the instance UserDefined1 and export the language data, then the language data would also be exported for the graphics Symbol1, Symbol2, and UserDefined2.Symbol1.
