Getting Started with UWP/WinRT Edition > Localization |
Localization for WinRT projects is more complex than in other applications since your application will honor the language set by the end-user in their system's Control Panel.
The following controls contain resources which can be localized:
C1Barcode
C1Calendar
C1ColorPicker
C1PdfViewer
C1RichTextBox
C1RichTextBoxMenu
C1Scheduler
C1SpellChecker
C1SsrsViewer
The following languages are supported:
Note that supported languages for C1Barcode and C1SsrsViewer are - Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Traditional Chinese, and Simplified Chinese. |
You can change the language for the application by setting it in the Package.appxmanifest or by setting the PrimaryLanguageOverride at application start:
Copy Code
|
|
---|---|
Windows.Globalization.ApplicationLanguages.PrimaryLanguageOverride = "ja-JP";
|
