Translating BcadTools Freeware


By default, BcadTools provides the user interface in English and German language - but the software is specifically designed to support an easy translation into any other language.


There is a kind of automatism in the way as BcadTools identifies which language dependent files are to be used :


1. step

If there is a user-defined language (stored in Registry), then those related language dependent files are used

2. step

if such files are not found in BcadTools installation folder, BcadTools tries to use use the same language key as BricsCAD

3. step

if such files are not found, the default English files with <en_US> language key are used

4. step

if such files are also not available, BcadTools will use files without language key, if present


There are 2 main subjects for translations - the user interface and this documentation.


As specified in License Agreement, there are no legal restrictions to create more language files for BcadTools. We would only like to ask to send translated files to us, to have more translations included in BcadTools by default.


Please send your translations to [email protected] - naturally, the translated files will get the copyright remark of its author !
