20.9.2 Static Language Switching
For a static switch of the language a language file (*.vis, *.tlt, *.txt) file can be used (for
how to create see below). The difference to the dynamic language switching is that
the language cannot be defined by a project variable during run time.
Note!
For visualizations it is recommended to use the *.vis language file, because *.tlt-
resp. *.txt-translation files only work for visualizations in »PLC Designer« resp.PLC
Designer HMI and also in those not for the Meter, Bar Display and Histogram
elements.
In dialog ‘Visualization settings’ you configure, which language file should be used
with the project. In order to choose a translation (*.tlt, *.txt) or a pure visualization
language file (*.vis), which contains the texts in the various languages, activate the
Language file option and in the input field next to it enter the appropriate file path.
Via the button you get the standard dialog for opening a file.

Regarding creating a translation file *.tlt, please see 'Project' 'Translate into other
languages'.
