Changing localization in PlanMaker

Post by oliv4044 »

Hi,

I need to edit PlanMaker documents for different countries, with different localization, for instance German and English. They use different localizations, for instance the thousand separator is , in English and . in German.
My system is in English, so PlanMaker is too.

How do I change the localization? If I change the language in the settings, nothing changes, not sure why, not even the language of the interface. Ideally, I would like to keep the interface in English, and change only the formats or the language of the spell checking. Can I change the localization for a specific document, or even better, for specific sheets or cells? I searched in the documentation, but I did not find this information.

Thanks!

Concerning the item, that your interface language was not changed (I cannot imagine, that it does not):

In the File | Options dialog box in PlanMaker, please ensure, that you change the Dialog language on the Appearance tab.
The language on the Language tab is meant for Spell check.

To change/select localization of templates:

Go to: File => New => More => Available Languages => Select Languages needed.

This will enable the default Planmaker templates for that given language. Then simply select the template on the language you need. You can also pin the templates so you can access them faster.

You could also copy the templates of the language you require inside the templates of the default language for ease of use too, just change the name of the template to know what is what.
