Hi Zoltan,

Thanks for a great tool.
There are many Chinese around me who use this tool. Is it possible to launch a Chinese or multi-language version of the tool?

Best Regards
Jimmy

    Hi Jimmy,

    Do you mean to have Chinese menus and dialog text, etc?

    Well, the tool is developed in the Microsoft Foundation Classes framework, which I think supports full international characers. So in theory this is possible.

    However, I cannot speak Chinese, so I am not sure how to start. Would you be willing to help? Maybe the easiest would be for you to translate the resource file, which contails at least some of the text. Shall I send it to you?

    Hi Zoltan,

    At first I mean show chinese in chart. And I found a way by select the right font.

    If you'd like to have Chinese menus and dialog text. I'd be happy to translate the resource file. It will help more Chinese user. Thank you.

      Thanks Jimmy. I am happy it works.

      At this point it would be a big undertaking to do several languages for menus and dialogs, as not only the resource file contains text, but it is also scattered throughout the code. I would rather spend my meager time on some other improvements. So I close this ticket.
