Export graphic language data for a managed InTouch application

You export language data for a managed InTouch application using the IDE. You cannot export translations from within the InTouch HMI.
The export includes strings for:
-
All InTouch windows
-
All SmartSymbols
-
Industrial Graphics referenced by the $InTouchViewApp template
The export causes a cascade export of all referenced Industrial Graphics.
When you export language data for a managed InTouch application, the default language for the Galaxy is ignored. The InTouch default locale is always the installed InTouch locale. If the InTouch installed locale and the Galaxy default language are not the same, the export is skipped for the selected InTouchViewApp and a message is logged.
