French string

Hello all!

Just found a French string file under resources/strings

I take it that this is the translation of ASP8 interface, but I cannot find any ways to use it.

Anyone has an idea?

Thanks.

I'm not sure, but I think you can select the language when installing AS.
Anyway, try this, change the name of "Strings.FR.txt" to "Strings.EN.txt" and reopen AS, it will be in French now. Be sure to backup the files before any change, just in case.

There is another cool way to use string. You can change or add shortcuts to menu which hasn't. For example, I created a new txt file and saved on that folder as "Strings.EN.txt"
It just has this lines:

Code: Select all

/Windows/MainLayer/CharacterWitzard=CW
/Windows/MainLayer/Library=L
/Menus/Window/Actions=ActionsK
/Menus/Window/Layers=LayersL
/Menus/Window/Tools=ToolsT
/Menus/Draw/InsertText=Text
/Menus/Bone/HideControlledBones=Hide Controlled BonesH

With that saved, now the character wizard button only says "CW", the library is just "L".
I can undock (to hide it out of the screen) the layers window with Crtl+L and tools with Crtl+T. I put a shortcut to easily hide/show controllled bones with Crtl+H.

PD: I erased the shortcut insert text (Crtl+T in normal installation) to be able to put it to the tools palette.
PD: I read this fantastic idea from Ramón López (Thanks, Ramón!)

Has the V8 english string been posted yet?

You are welcome, GCharb

Officially there are no strings for version 8 yet, but you can download the old one (from version 6, if I remember well) and use the lines you want.
