We are using VS2008 and an UltraWinGrid v8.2. In the designer, to localize the program we switch the language to e.g. German from Default, and then type in the German Header captions for the grid. This creates a new Form.de.rexs file as expected.
However, now both English and German versions are messed up. The headers for the grid in both languages are a mixture of German and English in a fairly random order, different in each language. Some headers appear in both languages, some in neither, and most headers no longer appear above the appropriate column.
This is a major hassle; is there any workaround other than manually editing the resx files, and would that even work?
Thanks, Joel
Hi Joel,
The visual Studio designer has a lot of problems with localization when dealing with collection properties. You can see the same kinds of issues using any control that uses collections of items, such as the MS TreeView or ListView controls.
I am pretty sure that we have taken steps to work around these issues in our latest version, but the fixes I am thinking of probably don't go back as far as v8.2.
And, of course, once the strings are corrupt, no fix can restore them. So I recommend that you get the latest version. You can download a free trial and test it out to make sure it works for what you need.
If you are still having issues like this with the latest version, then we would have to look into it in more detail.
