Translate FMX.consts

[g.buonfini]

Hello everyone

I have a question about translating some resourcestring.

- FMX project on Delphi 10.4
- Tsilang 7.8.4

I need to translate the strings in the system menu items (Services, Hide, Hide Others and Quit)



This items are added automatically in Delphi 10.4 applications, so do not need to be added by the developer

The strings are found in the FMX.consts file.

Is it possible to translate them?

Hello,

I believe these strings (on the screenshot) and commands are added by Mac OS itself and it will be impossible to change them.
But to translate strings declared in FMX.Consts.pas you can try the following trick:
1. Copy FMX.Consts.pas to you project's folder.
2. Modify it by changing resourcestring to var or const and declare them as strings.
3. Add this unit to your project.
4. Translate it with TsiLang Expert as you do for the regular units without form in your project.
5. Try to place FMX.Consts.pas at the top of the uses clause of your project file.
6. Re-build your project.

Hope this helps.

Hello,

What do you mean under "those resourcestrings"? Strings that are listed in system menu: Hide, Hide Others and Quit? If yes, then you can't translate them as I think they are from the OS and Mac OS adds them not RAD Studio.
