wxFormBuilder is translated in english. It could be helpfully for everybody to use the application into his own language.

Of course, any element of the application should be translatable (I think about elements’ description).

    The application should be mostly translatable as is, we wrote it with internationalization in mind. However, if you want a translation in your native language, you’ll have to provide it.

    Well, of course, I’m ready to translate wxFB in French :) Does any POT file exist ?

    I’m sorry, I thought I was monitoring this for comments, and I was not.

    There are no POT files, but the proper macros are in the code. You should be able to get poEdit and scan the files for the strings and create a translation for them.

    I’ve never done this before. I’ve only read the documentation. So, if wxFB is lacking something necessary, please explain and we will try to provide it.

    I’ve done this .bat to auto-make the POT file for wxFB (first install gettext for windows and then use the .bat in the root project file). With this POT file, you can now make the translation in your own language (For exemple, the file named wxFB.mo contain ~75% of the french translation). Unfortunately, the elements’ description are in xml files, so they can’t be translatable as is (I’m thinking to find an another way). For the moment, wxFB need a new dialog box to select the language of the application (I’m working on it too).
