Translating (W.I.P.)

Do you know another language? Help translate, or help improve our existing translation in your own language!

The recommended way of translating is by using a program called Qt Linquist. It is a program that is part of the Qt toolkit.

Installing the program

  1. Download the Qt toolkit{:target="_blank"}.
  2. Follow the on screen installation instructions.
  3. After installation, open the folder: <qt install folder>\<qt version>\<msvc folder>\bin. So for example, if you installed Qt 5.7 (latest version as of this writing) to the default installation folder, you would go to C:\Qt\5.7\msvc2015_64\bin.
  4. In that folder, double click the program named linguist.exe. You may want to create a shortcut to the desktop to avoid looking for it again.

Starting translation

Qt uses .ts files to save translation files. If you don't know how to generate .ts files for your language, please create a new GitHub Issue with the subject "Translating in (language)"

For more information on Qt Linguist, please visit the Qt Linguist Manual{:target="_blank"}.
