Save Now The SAVE NOW target should be used often. It secures your work and saves your work to its associated xml file. It is good practice to use the SAVE NOW target after each translation entry, including after the PASTE function. NOTE Always select the SAVE NOW target before you exit the translation utility. English Column Your L3 software uses the English language as its default. All terms, phrases, numerics, symbols, etc. were created using the English language. The ENGLISH column serves as the list of the available terms, phrases, numerics, symbols, etc. that may be translated. The ENGLISH column displays all terms, phrases, numerics, symbols, etc. in a somewhat numerical-alphabetical order. Each items appears on a row and possible additional rows when used in multiple locations within the software. NOTE If a term, phrase, numeric or symbol appears on more than a single row, it is important to translate all rows with that information. The individual row corresponds to a particular location within the software and where and how it is displayed. NOTE The ENGLISH column lists some terms, phrases, numerics and symbols that may not pertain to your specific software. It is acceptable to only translate the terms you are familiar with for your force measurement or material testing application. Comments Column The COMMENTS column is “read-only” and serves to provide additional information that is intended to assist you to understand the definition or context of certain terms, phrases, etc. Translated Language Column The TRANSLATED LANGUAGE column is the result of your translation. The translated term, phrase, numeric, symbol, etc. that you translated in the Input Text Entry Block, is displayed in this column. Use this column to read your translated text and compare to the English column to ensure that your translation is correct. Note The header displayed for the TRANSLATED LANGUAGE column must represent the Language you selected in the Settings setup for the Language option. If the header does not display your language, you are incorrectly and improperly translating into another language. Note The terms, phrase, numeric, symbol, etc. displays in red to indicate that it has NOT BEEN TRANSLATED.
No Translated is Needed When you select a row for translation, you have the option to not translate the term, phrase, numeric, symbol, etc. In other words, you are accepting that particular item as your translation. Select the NO TRANSLATION IS NEEDED to accept the items displayed in your language column as the “correct” term, phrase, numeric, symbol, etc. NOTE
If you press the NO TRANSLATION IS NEEDED function, the term, phrase, numeric, symbol, etc. changes color from red to black. Black text indicates the item has been translated. A red item shows that the item has not be translated.
Hide Translated Text Now Select the HIDE TRANSLATION TEXT NOW to hide all terms, phrases, numerics, symbols, etc. that have been translated or where they have been identified as “No Translated is Needed”. NOTE Items that have been translated or that are considered
translated, display in black text. When the HIDE TRANSLATED TEXT NOW is pressed, these items are not displayed. Only the remaining items, displayed in red, are displayed.
Show All Text Now The SHOW ALL TEXT NOW lets you display all terms, phrases, numerics, symbols, etc. If you used the Hide Translated Text Now function to hide translated items, selecting the SHOW ALL TEXT NOW will re-display any hidden item. NOTE You can check to ensure that all terms, phrases, numerics and symbols are translated by using the SHOW ALL TEXT NOW function and looking for any items in your language column that displays in red text. Red text means the item has not be translated. Input Text Entry Block The INPUT TEXT ENTRY BLOCK is where you type in your translation. When you select a row, this block highlights in green with the English term, phrase, numeric, symbol, etc. Use your delete key to remove the English version and then use your keyboard to enter your preferred translation- term, phrase, numeric, symbol, etc. NOTE Always use the shortest term, phrase, numeric or symbol. Remember, your translation must fit the space it has been allocated within the software. NOTE After you have entered your translation, press the SAVE NOW target. NOTE Ensure that your translation took effect by verifying that your new translation is displayed in the Translated Language column and that it is displayed in black text.
