Launching NLS window

There are generally two scenarios to use NLS: in XUI file and in transaction file.

In XUI file
Widget properties
NLS can help user to update the language for text or hint properties of widgets, including
  • Label, Button, and Link widgets which possess the text and hint properties.
  • Text and Table column when the data name is set as string type, and TextArea.
    Note: Normally, the latter group is not recommended to bundle NLS. In some specific scenario which need to bundle NLS with these widgets, it is only recommended to use NLS for message display. Otherwise, submission, validation or other data management would lead to logical contradiction. Please be cautious in this situation.
Choices
  • Double-click the widget that has the NLS.
  • Click the widget and turn to the Properties view. Click Browse in the Value column.
