Character Map Translation 2022-11-19.xlsx

Hi.

I want to help with the German Language (de_DE).

I forked the Repo and created me a new Certificate.
I could Build after that...
Now I can Debug, but in the XAML Editor I have alot of Issues in the XAML Code.
For Instance "helpers:CompositionFactory.CornerRadius" is not found... ?
In all these Views:

• ExportView
• FontMapView
• PrintView
• SettingsView

With that it is a little bit hard to Find the UI-Translations.
These where the Translations that I wantd to do first.
I also got "Multilingual Editor" Installed also to VSIX.

I am ready to start. :)

Do I need more Preperations?

c.u.

Edit: What is the precedence on the provided Files?
I use the XFL File, but it is not imported into the UI.
I assume the ResW-File is the one it is used...
There are diffenrences between the XLF and the RESW.
Example is the "SearchBox.PlaceholderText" in the RESW it is "Suche Unicode".
In the XLF it is "Search character name or unicode hex" (original, and I translated it to this "suche Zeichen: Entweder der Name oder Unicode-HEX als Suchbegriff".

Now I see the shorter Term is better...

Can someone help me with the Workflow?

When I see the Italian Translation, I ask myself was it generating the RESW automagicaly, or manually?

Thanks in advance...

Oh. Sorry there for a long quite I have fall off from this project and rarely look back.
I'll provide you with the file. All you need is to send a PR of a file that I will provide.

Hi. @ray1997

Thank You.

BTW: Is there a need to tranlsate the Segoe MDL2 Asset Glyphnames?

I made a Webcrawler over the MS WebPages.
I extracted only a couple like German, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Korean and Russian.

Most of them are not Translated at all or have just a Subset translated.

Another Question, Off -Topic: Is there a possibility to create also a WPF-Glyph export?

How will You provide me the File? I prefer Morse-Code... :)

Thank You for bothering with me... c.u.

[ray1997]

@ZuiMelanieForno It's look like Multilingual broke :/
I'm not sure what I can do. For now, you can translate the .xlf file and send a PR but it won't update to UI.

BTW: Is there a need to tranlsate the Segoe MDL2 Asset Glyphnames?

Segoe MDL2 Asset glyph names was store on TXT file and there's no way to translate them as the code to read them is on C++ side which I had no expertise of it at all.

WPF-Glyph export

I don't understand. Is it a glyph export on WPF app? You can try. An export code is on `ExportManager.cs

Character-Map-UWP/CharacterMap/CharacterMap/Core/ExportManager.cs

Line 377 in 5ddce28

public static async Task<ExportResult> ExportPngAsync(

I prefer Morse-Code... :)

[ZuiMelanieForno]

Ok, ExportManager, I will try that...

SegoeUI GlyphNames: Done. (It magically went away...)

For the MultiLingual, I made me a small XLF Editor.

I have only 311 Items to Translate, alot are not implemented in the X:Uid-Segments.

It will slightly take a little more Time, got an Exam-Project to prepare.

Will stay in touch... thx mate

[ray1997]

I'm not sure what's going on but no matter how many times I enable the translation it kept saying it didn't found any resource file but there's already a resource file in there..

1> Project 'CharacterMap' was enabled. The project's source culture is 'en-US' [English (United States)].
1> Project 'CharacterMap' does not have any localizable resources. At least one resource file will need to be added before translation languages can be added.

It didn't give any further detail and I'm totally stuck. So, we'll wait for anyone else who can fix this, I guess.

[ZuiMelanieForno]

Good Morning...

Ok then.
We will get it done soon. But first a Cup of Coffee...
If I find the Time, I will take a closer look.
