Context Menu Localization - SyntaxEditor for Windows Forms Forum

Posted 16 years ago by Edwin Locke

Version: 4.0.0277

I would like to localize the popup context menu (Cut, Copy, Paste, Delete, etc.). Is it still necessary to create a custom menu to achieve this functionality? If not can someone give me a hint to where these resources are located?
Thanks

Ok, I just made my own menu.

Hi Edwin,

Right now, correct, you'd need to make your own. However we've updated our code so the menu items can be localized for the next maintenance release.

Hi,

is there now a way to localize the menu items?

Hi Heribert,

Yes, all the menu items use string resources by default now for the text. These are the related string resource names:

DefaultContextMenu_UndoMenuItem_Text
DefaultContextMenu_RedoMenuItem_Text
DefaultContextMenu_CutMenuItem_Text
DefaultContextMenu_CopyMenuItem_Text
DefaultContextMenu_PasteMenuItem_Text
DefaultContextMenu_DeleteMenuItem_Text
DefaultContextMenu_SelectAllMenuItem_Text

You can set them programmatically at app startup with this kind of code:

ActiproSoftware.Products.SyntaxEditor.SR.SetCustomString("DefaultContextMenu_UndoMenuItem_Text", "Localized Undo");

Thx a lot!

The latest build of this product (v24.1.1) was released 1 month ago, which was after the last post in this thread.
