I am using VS2008. I have a form which contains several usercontol. I am trying to localize the form to another lanuage.
I changed the localizable property of the form to true, change the languange to the one I want to use, let's say spanish. Then change some usercontrol text.
however, when I went back to default language, some user control works well, some bring content in spanish back.
I checked the resx file, the controls which not work well, thier .text property not exist in the resx file generated by VS. I added them in to the resx file and the spanish resx manually, rebuild, still not work, some of the strings I added in the resx files deleted by the system automatically...
why these usercontrols can not be localized? things happened on some buttons too
Please help.
------------------------------
A UserControl has its own Localizable and Language property in the designer, independent of the Form on which it is placed. You will have to localize it all by itself.
You can mark public properties that you added to the UC as localizable as well so that the form's localization alters the property value. Easy to do:
[Localizable(true)]
public string SomeText { get; set; }
