Language

Settings > UI > Language The language of Candy Dialogue Creator's interface: its menus, Panels, settings, field help and messages. It changes nothing in your Dialogues: the languages of Spoken Lines are Variations (see Variations). Unlike the other settings, the language isn't stored in a profile: it applies to every user and profile on the computer, and is saved as soon as it's chosen.

Choosing a Language Language lists each language by its own name: • System language, the default: the language of your computer, when a translation of Candy Dialogue Creator exists for it, and English otherwise. • English. • Every language a translation is installed for, such as Français. • Test language (for translators) (see Translations). Candy Dialogue Creator translates its texts as it builds its interface, so a new language is displayed once Candy Dialogue Creator is restarted. When another language is chosen, a message written in that language asks you to restart. A text a translation doesn't cover is displayed in English. Command Names Translate command names decides how Commands are named in the interface: on the buttons of the Dialogue Buttons panel, in the Dialogue Editor's header, in menus and in the names of shortcuts. • Off, the default: Commands are displayed with their English names (Spoken Line, Media Play), as Candy Dialogue Engine's documentation writes them. • On: Commands are displayed with their names in the chosen language. Like the language, this option applies once Candy Dialogue Creator is restarted. The names written in Dialogues (Spoken_Line, Media_Play), which the Dialogue Navigator displays, are never translated, since Candy Dialogue Engine reads them. A Command named inside a translated sentence, such as a field's help, follows the language. What Isn't Translated Whatever you write is displayed as written: your Dialogues, the names of Conversations, Blocks and entries, the values of fields, your Presets, inserts and layouts. The names stored in a layout are data too: the names of tabs, categories and filters. The built-in layout contains names of its own, which are displayed in English in every language. To display them in your language, rename them:

Names	Examples	To rename one
Dialogue Editor tabs	Write, Randoms, Translate, TTS	Right-click the tab and choose Rename Tab... (see Line Layouts).
Tabs of a Tabs panel, such as the row of Dialogue Buttons panels	Presets, Engine, Media, Choice	Right-click the tab and choose Rename Tab... (see Tabs).
Inserts panel categories	Styling, Colors, Symbols, Speech	In the panel's Buttons dialog, select the category and press Rename (see Inserts).
Fields widget categories	Writing, Voice, Modes	In the widget's Fields... dialog, select the category and press Rename (see Fields).
Filters	Disposition, Setup	In the Filters... dialog, select the filter and press Rename (see Filters).

The renamed names are saved with the layout. Reset Layout restores the built-in layout, with its English names.
