UI Localizer Tool does not show strings

[wanttoknow]

Hello,

I'm working with CVI 8.0 and WinXP. I want to localize strings in my panels so i tried the UI localizer tool. But this seems not to work with panels having a menubar. So when I open the panel (with menubar) I only see the strings of the menubar but not the strings of the controls on it. Is there something I must take care of or do I have to create the menubar in another uir - file?

Thanks for help.

regards

Chris

Hello Chris,

The localization utility should show you the strings of all the panels and all the menubars in the UIR.

Try this experiment: load samples\userint\menus.uir in utility. It should show you strings for both PANEL and MENU. If it does, then that means that there's something specific to your .UIR that is causing the problem. If that's the case, would it be possible for you to attach your .UIR here, so that we could investigate it?

Thanks,
Luis

Thanks. I could in the meantime isolate the problem. The problem is because of a Tab-control I use. If I delete the Tab-control, then everything is ok. I looked for the knowledge-base from NI and found that there is a problem with Tabs and version 8.0 of CVI UI Localizer . So I will install the update 8.0.1 first and see...

Yes. That was the problem. After updating to 8.0.1 I can use the UI Localizer with my panel.
