One string with multiple terms was created by JOY

Hi,

I'd like to use one new string which contains multiple terms from translated one. Ex:
key_1 +"and" + key2

Is it possible? Or I have to create a new term?

Thanks,
Anh

You should use callbacks for that: ( inter-illusion.com/assets/I2LocalizationManual/Callbacks.html )

Create a term like:
MainTerm (English: "{TERM1} and {TERM2}", Spanish "{TERM1} y {TERM2}")

Then, set a callback with a script similar to this:

public void OnModifyLocalization()
{
       if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(Localize.MainTranslation))
               return;
                       
       string term1 = LocalizationManager.GetTermTranslation( "MyTerm1" );
       string term2 = LocalizationManager.GetTermTranslation( "MyTerm2" );
       
       Localize.MainTranslation = Localize.MainTranslation.Replace("{TERM1}", term1);
       Localize.MainTranslation = Localize.MainTranslation.Replace("{TERM2}", term2);
}

Depending on what MyTerm1 and MyTerm2 are, you can also use parameters ( inter-illusion.com/assets/I2LocalizationManual/Parameters.html )

Callbacks are needed if you need the translated MyTerm1, while Parameters are used if you want to set the text "MyTerm1" directly (i.e. a name or a number)

Hope that help,
Frank

Hi,

Using script is another story. What I suggest is using the spreadsheet itself. It will be much easier for the "none-code" member to work on the translation.
