renaming a bookmark

[Anonymous]

Hi

I'd like to edit the object 'bookmark' and rename the text 'Select bookmark' into the Russian language. I show this text string in the file attached.

Is there a way to do it?

Thank you in advance,

Larisa

Hi Larisa,

it looks like this text is not easily configurable (but you already know that). If you change the interface language to Russian, then the text appears in Russian. Otherwise, I'd be looking into a document extension with a CSS control that would replace the text on the AJAX client. I don't know of any other way.

cheers,

This is a builtin string.

AFAIK there is only one method to change this string into its Russian counterpart, and that is by changing the QV Desktop Interface Language.

See Settings->User Properties->Click Change Interface Language Button

Best,

Peter

BTW the XML representation of a Bookmark Object has no tag for this text string either. You could try to manipulate the string using some maro code, but a trick like that won't work in the Ajax client.

Hi Peter,

In case the dashboards are published on ther server, do I need to do the same setting on the server?

Thank you in advance

Unfortunately no. Just like in QV Desktop, the UI language is not a document-related setting but an installation related setting. If you change the UI language for QlikView Server, the change applies to the entire platform and to all documents hosted on your server. (the AP landing page will still be in English, as it has an entirely different method for changing the text language)

See Change Access Point Language for more information.

Of course you can avoid this by embedding strings for different languages in your document. But as we found out already, that won't let you change the "Select bookmark" text... Damn...
