I have my menu composed of the TActionManager & TActionMainMenuBar

When I try to translate or use the extended translation procedure, my ActionManger.ActionBar[x].Item[x] doesn't appear. Must I change the traduction in runtime by myself ? I known that this ActionManager can't be translated with D6 but is it possible with your component ?

Thanks,

Yves.

Yes, it is possible. See our FAQ for details:

Hello,

I do that but my translation don't work. All subitems are translated but my main menu items (file,edit,...) stay in english ...

Have you assigned and translated the action for each top-level item?

[lenif7780]

yes

I use the filname property of the actionmanager to store the layout and maybe the problem come from there ?

[lenif7780]

To get it working, I add all main menu items caption into const. At the end of the UpdateStrings methode, i add ActionManager.ActionBand[0].Item[x].Caption := myConst;

So it works, but I don't think it's really the good method ... !

I think too, but when translate in runtime myself, into the onchangelang event, that works great !

One more question: I f you test the actionmanager & customize menu possibility, you can see that delphi popup a small window to customize menus. How can I translate this too ?

[isiticov]

The strings from this popup menu ar placed in resource strings of project. So you can translate them by importing them from executable and setting the HandleResourceStrings property to True.
