This section describes how to switch the language shown for industrial graphics, the effects of different language settings on an individual industrial graphic, and language switching behaviors for certain features, such as embedded graphics, custom properties, and string substitution.
The language settings of the IDE control which languages are available to graphics. You cannot add a language at the graphic level. Languages are only added at the HMI/SCADA product level using the IDE.
Using the Industrial Graphic Editor, you select which of the IDE-configured languages you want to show for your graphic. By default, text for the graphic is shown in the default language and font for the IDE.
You export text for translation using the IDE.
