In 2c8 Modeling Tool, you can choose to publish your material in several different languages, in the same publication.

Translation of designations and titles in the publication

By switching between the different languages ​​we just added and editing titles and designations, we can make the entire publication available in several different languages. For example you can change the labels of the menu options into different launguage.

Translation of content in panels

If you are translating to English, much of the material in the left panel is already translated into English. However, it may be that you have added tabs or information that is beyond the default settings, or that you need to translate your material into a language other than English.

If you want to translate tabs in your panel, first of all select the language you want to translate to, at the top left corner of the web profile. Then double-click the tab's title to translate to the current language.

Translation of names in the publication

Under "Advanced settings" - "Translations" in the web profile, you can translate various names in the published material. It can be, for example, standard texts that appear when you hover with the mouse pointer over objects, or the error message that can appear in the published material.
