Localizing the Report Interface

If the appropriate mapping file for the user's locale selection cannot be found at runtime, the default 'srinter.properties' file is used and no localization is performed.

Each line of text in the “srinter” mapping file has the following simple format:

{interface_element}={translated_interface_element}

The {interface_element} text in most cases is just the text of the actual interface element, for example, 'Scorecard' to represent the text displayed in the Scorecard tab. Spaces in the {interface_element} text must be escaped by a backslash, for example, 'My\ Reports'.

The {translated_interface_element} represents the localized text that you want to appear in the interface element. Spaces in the {translated_interface_element} do not need to be escaped.

For example, the French Canadian localization file mentioned above might contain the following lines of text, where, for purposes of illustration, “Report_fr” is used as the French translation of “Report,” and so on.

Report = Report_fr

Dashboard = Dashboard_fr

Design = Design_fr

Scorecard = Scorecard_fr

Schedule = Schedule_fr

My\ Reports = My Reports_fr

Tutorial = Tutorial_fr

Apply = Apply_fr

OK = OK_fr

Close = Close_fr

The above mapping renames the main tabs, the Repository tree folders, and the Ad Hoc buttons with the specified mock French text. Consult the default 'srinter.properties' file for a complete listing of interface elements that can be translated in this way.

Reasons for Fund Raisers Dashboards - The first and most obvious benefit of using a dashboard is that you are able to monitor multiple things at once.
