Translations Manager

The Translations Manager in Pyplan allows you to efficiently manage translations within the platform, ensuring that nodes, interface elements, and components are accessible in multiple languages.

Configuring Translations​

Before adding translations to an application, you must first set a default language in the application properties:

Set App Language

This enables translations for the following elements:

  • Nodes
  • Interfaces
  • Interface components
  • Menu components

Nodes​

To translate the node title, go to the node properties and navigate to the Translations tab. There, you can specify the corresponding translations for the node title:

Node Title Translations

To translate the node documentation, access it the same way as the regular node documentation. The documentation editor will have three tabs, each corresponding to a different language.

Node Documentation Dialog

Interfaces​

To translate the interface name, access the Interface Manager and open the interface editor. Navigate to the Translations tab to enter translations.

Interface Name Translations

For interface documentation translation, the process is the same as for nodes.

Interface Components​

Custom titles for components are modified from the interface component editing section, within the general settings.

Using the Translations Manager​

To unify translation management, the Translations Manager was created. This tool lists all translatable items within the application.

To access the Translations Manager, go to App Management → Translations Manager:

Sidebar Menu to Manager

Items are categorized into Nodes, Interfaces, Components, Menu Item Text, Menu Item Subtitles, Menu Action Text, and Menu Action Subtitles.

Type Items

Each row contains a default language column (disabled) and additional columns for other translatable languages. The default language column is automatically populated with values from the respective field.

Once confirmed, automatic translations will be generated. These translations will not be permanently saved until you click the Save App button.

Editing Documentation Translations​

The Translations Manager also allows you to edit and add translations for interface and node documentation. This feature is only available for items that already contain existing documentation.

Items with documentation will display an additional icon in the Actions column to open the Documentation Editor.
