Help & Manual 5 (http://www.ec-software.com/index.html) projects are saved in uncompressed XML. I would like to know if it's possible to use Sisulizer to translate these help projects? I could translate the chm but I'd rather translate the source. I've only used Sisulizer for software and HTML before, so XML is completely new to me. I've tried creating a Sisulizer project from the XML files, but the Tags and XML element attributes are included and can be modified. The Help and manual documentation says I'm only meant to translate the "text data between tags with the translate="true" attribute". Any idea how/if I can set up Sisulizer to do this? Thanks, Hayden

Hi, I don't know how Sisulizer supports XML files build by latest version of Help & Manual. Any time ago I used H&M, but it was very old v.3. I have localized many different XML files without any problems, and if you want I can to test your XML file. I've tried creating a Sisulizer project from the XML files, but the Tags and XML element attributes are included and can be modified. The Help and manual documentation says I'm only meant to translate the "text data between tags with the translate="true" attribute". Localization XML files with the Sisulizer is fully customizable, and you can select any attributes to localization or not to localization. You can use right click on XML source in SL project tree, select from context menu "Properties" and select "Tags" tab in soruce properties dialog window. Here you can check or uncheck attributes to localization. Look on screenshot with one sample project. You can also to find additional options (context menu) for these dialog box if you use right click on visible in "Tags" box elements. Best, Janusz Attachment: screen.png (Downloaded 51 times)

Thanks, I understand much better now. I can now successfully make a Sisulizer project with one XML file, but I'm have trouble with a whole folder (containing many XML files). The problem is that Sisulizer seems to use one XML file as a template for the structure, but the other XML files can contain elements in different places to the reference file. Can Sisulizer account for tag structures that are not in the first file? e.g. the first XML file knows about these structures. <table><li><list><text> and <table><li><link> but not about <table><li><list><link> I don't care about the structure of the XML, I just want certain tags localized. I want it so that certain tags, no matter at which level or combination with other tags in the XML they occur, can be localized. Is this possible? Thanks Hayden

Hi, Probably during project creation you selected in Project Wizard following option - "Localize all similar files in a directory". Sisulizer use always this same settings (properties) for files added in this way. It is could be sometimes very useful, for example if your project contains 50 HTML files, you can at one change some properties of all these files .e.g. encoding of 50 HTML files. But if you want use independent settings for each file, you should to choose in Project Wizard "Localize a file or files" option. After creating project with one source, you can at any moment add next file to project by selecting "Add source" from context menu of project tree pane. You can define independently all properties (e.g. Tags for XML sources) for all sources added in this way. Of course, you can also add to project source files of different types, for example XML, CHM and binary files. Best, Janusz

Excuse me, I forgot about your second question… Excluding of selected tags with above mentioned method disable localization for all occurrences of selected tags in file, but you can instead it manually lock (items are visible in sheet, but aren’t localizable) or exclude (items aren’t visible in sheet) selected rows directly in project sheet, it is maybe more flexible solution, but unfortunately also more effort solution then using “Tags” tab. If you don’t want use “Tags” tab and you prefer manually excluding tags from localization, I suggest using “Sheet Filter” > “Text” filter for disabling all identical items at once. It is could be also useful for untypical XML files. Below is link to topic with sample information about using text filer for XML files: http://forum.sisulizer.com/forum7/620.html Best regards, Janusz

Can the sheet filter>text>Context filter multiple context tags? I tried "text, link" and "text link" and "text; link" and variations but I don't get anything out of it. I can filter "text" and "link" individually, but it doesn't make much sense to do it this way. Cheers

Hi Adi, Filters work as Find/Search feature. You can to find these same options for Find and Text filters, e.g. Case sensitive, Whole words only, Accept wild chars etc. Search feature doesn't allows on multiple phrases search, and for this reason you also can't use at once multiple phrases in text filters, because if you will type e.g. "text; link", Sisulizer will be search strings contains both "text;" and "link". I can filter "text" and "link" individually, but it doesn't make much sense to do it this way.Why not? For example, if you want exclude all strings contains in context "text" and "link" you can: 1. Set context filter on "text" 2. Select all contents of sheet or column 3. From context menu select > Exclude > Exclude selected rows (or originals) 4. Clear filter 5. Repeat above steps for "link" Below is other example. I would like to have mark all OK and Cancel strings. 1. I will set Original filter on "OK" and check option "Whole strings only" 2. I will repeat all operations from above example, but instead Exclude, I will select "Marked" icon from sheet toolbar. Above operations mark all "OK" and "Cancel" strings for future using. For example I can in future use for marked strings following filter: Sheet filter > Other > Marked > False These above samples are only simple examples of Filter using, because filter could be used in many different combination. Hint: Since version 2008 you can save your filter settings for future use. Best, Janusz
