programme language

Asked by Jerry

Hello

I just set up Inkscape on my desktop.
Setup automatically installed the menu language in Finnish (i am based in Finland). There was no option to have the programm set up in English.
How do I change the language so the programme menu/fuction bars are in English (UK) ?

Thank you,
Jerry

Hi Jerry,

go to Edit -> Preferences -> Interface (or rather, their Finnish equivalents), then select the language from the first dropdown.

Kind regards,
 Maren

It does not solve my issue. I use mac and I see the X11 application in English , but everything in Inkscape is in Spanish!

This doesn't help since I can't read the menus?
