New Translation feature
AmultilingualConnecttemplatecanhandlecontentandstatictextelementsinmorethanonelan-
guage.TraditionallythiswasdonethroughcreatingaseparateTemplateorSectionforeachofthelan-

optionstoexporttranslationstringsinastandardizedfileformat.(SHARED-21729)
OLConnectDesignerletsyouimporttranslatedstringfilesandappliesthetranslationsbaseduponthe
currentlocale.Thelocalecanbeexplicitlysetforthetemplateordynamicallydefinedbythevalueofa
datafield.TheTranslationfeatureevenhandlespluralizationofstrings.

labelsetc.).ThisaddstherespectivestringstotheTranslationsview.
l
ExportthestringstoaPortableObjectTemplate(.pot)file.Sendthisfiletotranslators.
l
Translatorstranslate stringsandsendtheresultsbackasaPortableObject(.po)file.
l
Add the .po filetotheTranslationsfolderlocatedintheResourcespanel.
l
Set the desired localeforthetemplateeithertoaspecificlocaleorsetitdynamicallybased
uponadatafield.
