Hello
I got some trouble if I translate the component selection to German.

In my compopnent tree I want to show "Druckertreiber" not the english word "Printer driver"
But if I do this with the translation tool , later in the setup and in German language the selection is not recognized
So which of these strings can I translate that it still works?

SetComonentSelectionCommand
GetComponentSelectionCommands
DefineComponentCommands

can you helpme?
thanks a lot
kind regards
Hans

Dear Hans,

Assuming that this can be helpful to other user as well, I have realized a sample project that uses features in a localized scenario.

To have localized features correctly handled it is just required to assign the name parameter of "Define Component" command, to a previously defined Localized Variable with the script.

In the same way each time you want to verify a component selection state with "Get Component State" command, you should refer to a particular feature name using a defined Localized variable.

The Localized Variables used with the attached sample have been translated to English, French and German (I just appended the language name identifier to each variable value), using the InstallAware Translation Wizard Tool.

That's it ... and no other additional steps are required to have localized features to work correctly.

Hope this helps you and many other.

Regards
