Multi Project Planner Localization

Multi Project Planner reads its resources from a XML file called 'resources.xml'.
If you are familiar with XML-files you can localize Multi Project Planner yourself.

The file 'resources.xml' is not shipped with Multi Project Planner. The program builds the file on the fly, which means that the resources.xml file is not complete until every corner of the program have been visited.

Procedure
The file 'resources.xml' resides in Multi Project Planner's local data folder.
The local data folder can be found through the menu 'Help->System info'.

There are two methods you can use to edit the xml file:
  • Change the value of the 'text' attribute in every line.
  • Change the 'language value="EN"' from "EN" to "DE" f.ex.
    Make a copy of every line and change the 'language' attribute to "DE" and the 'text' attribute to whatever you like.
Caution
Some text contains the special character sequences as '%s' or '%d', as in this example "Assign %s to %s".
These character sequences must be perserved as they serve as place holders where the program will insert text or numbers. Failure to do so will make the program crash.
If the program crashes you have two options according to the method you have used to edit the xml file.
  • If you have chosen the first method you can rename the file 'resources.xml' to whatever you like and start the program again. The program will build a new 'resources.xml' file which you can compare with your edited version.
  • If you have chosen the second method, reset the language value to "EN". If the program runs compare every original line with your line.
