About predefined language attributes

AVEVA OMI includes a set of predefined Language attributes. These attributes identify the currently-selected language used by the ViewApp by name or by an ID number, and can be used in action scripts and animations to define actions that can change the current language and locale in a running ViewApp. These attributes can also be incorporated programmatically into an WPF-based app that can be added to a ViewApp. When used in an app, users can directly select a new language from a list of configured languages.

A typical runtime language workflow based on language attributes is for the user to select a graphic element shown in a ViewApp that includes an action script or animation containing a Language attribute. The script or animation switches to another pre-configured language. When implemented inside of an app, for example, in the TitleBar app, users can be presented with a drop-down list of all configured languages within the Galaxy, and can select one of the listed languages.
