Hi,
The plugin was not handling that case.
To make it avoid setting the MainTranslation but still do the Atlas switching, you will have to go the file corresponding to the target plugin you are using.
They are in Scripts/Targets
So, that if you are using NGUI, it will be Script/Tagets/LocalizeNGUI.cs
Then find the function
public void DoLocalize_UISprite(string MainTranslation, string SecondaryTranslation)
And change the lines:
into
That will skip setting the sprite name if the sprite translation wasn't set or the sprite is not valid.
Be aware that if no Term for the sprite is set, the plugin uses the SpriteName that is set to the UISprite component in the Editor.
So, you will have to assign no sprite to the UISprite. And then assign a valid sprite at runtime.
That way,the plugin will start, will try getting the spritename from the one you selected in the IDE, but will get nothing as there is no sprite. And MainTranslation will be empty. So that it will never be a valid sprite and so it will skip that step.
Let me know if that helps, otherwise I can send you an example scene. You can email me at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
Thanks,

Great!
Yes, there is a way. Normally, if you don't supply a secondary term, the labels will use the Font name.
So, if all your labels are using the Arial font, you just need to create a term named "Arial" and define the font you want to use for each language. (the term name has to be exactly the font name)
That way, when localizing, it will change the font of all labels that don't set a secondary term.
Hope that helps,
Frank

You should be following the same steps like in here:
inter-illusion.com/tools/i2-localization...ge-font-per-language
Just don't set the secondary term of the labels. And check that the name of the font you are using matches the name of the Term.
If you can't get it work property, I can send you an example scene with that setup. Just let me know what target are you using (NGUI, DFGUI, etc) and what type of fonts you using (Bitmap fonts, dynamic fonts, etc)
