Change Language of Sikuli IDE ?

Asked by Noah

How can I change the language of the Sikuli IDE? I am in Germany, but don't want the program to run in German. It detected German already at the installation, but gave me no options.

Thanks,

Noah

When you set your system language to english/US, then Sikuli at the next startup will present itself in english. (worked for me, when I made the translation to german ;-)

But that may influence other applications, so may be not a good choice.

I don't know, wether a runtime option -D for the java environment exists.
Your options:
- look into the source, to search for solutions
- delete the properties/po in i18n of sikuli-ide.jar, which would activate the standard en_US on a missing de
- wait for a response of the developers

meanwhile have fun with some german words around your sikuli script while working in the IDE :-)))

java -Duser.language=en is what you need. :)

Thanks guys! I only discovered Sikuli yesterday, and don't know Java, so I'm pleased with myself that I found that I needed to add that to Virtual Machine Parameters in the ini file :)

Now to start playing! :)
