Version 6.0.3.1
I have my main form with an RT and Dispatcher. I have all other forms which require translation with Link component.
In the expert, if I double click on a form I get the translations for each form separately. I have LoadonCreate True and the storage file assigned. After doing auto translate with Dictionary I get lang switching OK at runtime using a drop down.
On my preferences form I have a button for users to edit translations which calls
Main.siLangRT1.EditAll(); or Main.siLangRT1.EditProperty(stCaptions);
But I cannot, at runtime, see any other captions (or properties) than the main form captions. How does the runtime editor switch to other forms so users can edit other form's properties?
thanks

Hello,

In order to be able to edit all forms I would recommend you to use the approach described at http://www.tsilang.com/press/en/creatin ... users.html
If you still need to execute editing from your application then you can use TsiLangRTSE instead of TsiLangRT and it will call SIL Editor at run-time to edit the translations file.
Please let me know if this helps.

How do you make for editing with SIL Editor with a TsiLangRTSE???

Just call the EditStrings() method.

it is impossible to call EditStrings without this parameters DefPropty and FDelim and I'm not sure what is this parameter. Can you help me.

FDelim is not necessary actually and is deprecated.
DefPropty- is default property to select (applicable only while editing SIL file).
You can read the description of this method in help file.

Btw, I would suggest to use the scheme with "external" translations editing as described in http://www.tsilang.com/press/en/creatin ... users.html
But if you need to run editor from your application then you can use this component.
