GetText from specific language

Hi,
GetText method returns string constant by TextID depending on ActiveLanguage property.
I need to get text form specific language instead of ActiveLanguage.
How can I do?
Thx

Hello,

Just use GetStringValue() method:

Code: Select all

siLang1.GetStringValue(siLang1.Strings, 'YOUR_ID', [LANGUAGE_NUMBER]);

Hi Support,

and how can we i.e. get the translation for a caption of a component?

i.e. i have a label named mylabel1 with a caption "Save" and this is translated to german as "Speichern".

Now i want to be able to translate the word "Save" in runtime. with silang1.getstringvalue or with silang1.gettext('Save') i get a empty result.

Is there something i'm missing?

Code: Select all

silang1.GetStringValue(siLang1.Captions, 'mylabel1', 1);

will return the value for the first language.

But this was not the question. The question is how can i get a text for the caption of mylabel1 in this case

Code: Select all

silang1.GetStringValue(siLang1.Captions, 'Save', 1);

is not working. I need a way to get a translation for a string which is already translated because it is used as a caption somewhere.

Sorry, but there is no such functionality.

Any possibility to get such a functionality? We're on subscription and renewed it in the last days. Such functionality will be very good to be able to runtime translate some messages or dynamic created elements ...

We will check what could be done in this direction.
