At run time, Industrial Graphics are shown in the language set for InTouch WindowViewer.
If the Industrial Graphic’s language does not match the WindowViewer language setting, the language shown is the language that was the default language for the graphic when it was last saved.
For example, an InTouch Window has three different embedded Industrial Graphics: S1, S2, and S3.
-
S1 has a Text graphic with French and German languages configured.
-
S2 has Textbox graphic with only German language configured.
-
S3 has a Button graphic with English and Spanish languages configured. S3 has two client scripts. The first script switches the language to Chinese, and the second script switches the language to Spanish.
English is the default language. The following steps show how the translated graphics are shown:
-
Set the language to French in the WindowViewer.
The Text in S1 shows the "French String."
The Textbox in S2 shows the "German String."
The Button in S3 shows the "English String."
-
Run the first client script on graphic S3.
The Button in S3 still shows "English String."
-
Run the second client script on graphic S3.
The Button in S3 shows "Spanish String."
-
Set the language to German in the WindowViewer.
The Text in S1 shows the "German String."
The Textbox in S2 still shows the "German String."
The Button in S3 shows the "English String."
