Label Text and Button Text not saved

[bhavna]

Hi,

Platform: Windows 7, Windows 2008 R2
WINCCOA:3.11+SP1

Sometimes I need to copy labels or buttons from one panel to another and simply change their text property. Recently I have noticed that when I copy the modified panels from one machine to another machine(both running windows and same version of WINCCOA)), the label text or Button text change to same older value taken from previous panel. The changes are not preserved. Why is it so?

Regards,

Are you using projects with multiple languages ?
If so, it might be that the projects have different default languages. In that case you just see a different language
when you open the panel and you probably did not change the text for all languages.

Thank you.

Indeed my default language is not english, which I work in.

But I have faced problem in setting the default language. If I change the config file entry from

langs = "de_AT.iso88591"

to

langs = "en_US.iso88591"

my project stops working. The console does not even open.

This is not the correct way to define the default language.
Use
lang = "en_US.iso88591"
instead.

langs (with "s") is used to define the list of available languages in the project (you can have this entry multiple times in the config).
lang (without s) is used to define the default language, which must be one the "langs" entries (you have this entry only once in the config).

Thank you. It worked.

Hello,

please note that changing the langs-entries is not allowed when the project is already created.
Even changing the order of the used languages is not allowed.
