Switch application language at design time

If an application is designed with multiple languages, you may need to switch application languages at design time to check the layout of translated text.
TIP:
If any of the following editors is opened, these editors will be forced to be closed and will not be opened automatically after you switch application languages:
  • Communication Setup
  • Alarm and Event Setup
If any of the following dialog boxes is opened and has unsaved changes, a message prompts you to save the changes:
  • Display
  • Global objects
  • Local Messages
To switch application languages at design time:
  1. In FactoryTalk View Studio, on the toolbar, select
    Change Application Language
    Change application language icon.
  2. In the
    Change Application Language
    dialog box, select the language you want to change to.
    TIP:
    The language list shows the languages added to the application, first with the language name and then with the language RFC1766 identification code.
  3. Click
    OK
    .
