Grey Ajax Toolbar in different languages ?

Hi,

I have a request from a client to change the language that appears to the grey toolbar in Ajax - the one that has clear, forward, backward, bookmark buttons etc.

Is this possible ? I assume that QlikView users in Spain, Italy or France have the toolbar in their own language although I have never seen this.

If this is the case, is it driven by language settings at a server level or can it be personalised at a user level ?

Many thanks for an information,

Neil

Hi Neil,

You can change the AJAX interface language by updating the settings.ini file in c:\programdata\qliktech\qlikviewServer.

Edit the file and under "settings 7" can you find / or add a new line for interfaceLanguage:

[Settings 7]

InterfaceLanguage=German

The langugages supported are the same as the ones you can change to in the developer client.

If you want to change the toolbars appearance do you need to build a document extension, which can alter look and feel.

Hi.

Once I had the same request. I couldn't find other answer except, "I'll give you a translation". That means, there's only English version so far.

Good luck.

Hi, Chris.

I have just been told that the language is determined by the version of QlikView installed on the server so there is no flexibility to personalize this at an individual level.

try this for change language

Many thanks all of you for your comments.

I think the reality is that I will have to use an extension to remove the grey Ajax bar and put in buttons/text boxes in my application which change language according to the choice of the user.

Neil
