Hi,
When i translate my project to german, the entrys for the combobox for scheduling update are also tranlsated ("Every day" -> "Jeden Tag", 01:00 PM to 13:00). This values are not allowed for setting the task in the taskplanner. So the easiest way would be to prevent the items property from translation.
How can that be done?

Re: Preventing Gui component property from localization
Dear User,
with the automatic strings translation option available with InstallAware translation wizard, all project resourses are translated and it is not possible to skip a part of the strings to translate.
The possible alternatives that you have are:
- Use IA Translator tool to manually change or update any used string as you want.
- Modify using a text editor the resource translation reference file used by InstallAware translation wizard and available under the InstallAware installation folder. This file is available in the form <reference.language> and in your case it should be availabe as "reference.German".
If you decide to go in this way, you have to be careful to not alter the file format and strings sequence and before to proceed, make a backup of that file in order to restore its state in case of errors.
- You could use a third-party tool to manage IA resource strings translations (have a look to plugin forum section for more info).
Hope this helps you.
Regards.
