Global Strings

[skibbs]

We recently had all of the global strings translated to Italian, but the IA dialogs still show up in English. When I open a project and look at the global strings, they are correctly displayed in Italian, but when it is run then they default back to English.

I am running these installers on a US-ENG XP box, could it be that the IA strings are displayed in whatever language the machine is setup for? Rather than using the selected language? Just a guess...

Thanks!

I've attached a screenshot of an Italian installation that shows the English dialog popping up.

Here is a screenshot of Tools -> Edit Global Strings, the Italian strings are present as you can see, but they are not being shown.

Hi Matt!

Is the Language Selection dialog box being shown at runtime? Are you choosing Italian in that dialog box?

What is the default setup language as set in the Project Options window?

This seems like a bug to me - please let me know and I'll escalate ASAP.

I built a setup, trying to reproduce this issue...what confused me initially was that there were two seperate instances of "Are you sure you want to cancel?", one for the self-extractor (Initialization Text), and one for the setup itself (Installation Messages).

When I correctly localized both, everything worked fine...if I set a default language, the Cancel click showed the message for that language. If I chose to prompt the user for a language using the language selection dialog, the Cancel click showed the message for the user chosen language in the language selection dialog.

Could you please provide step-by-step instructions, starting with a new "Default Project" if possible, so I can reproduce this issue and escalate if its indeed a bug? Thanks!
