Translating leader notes on idw using i-logic

didin.suryadi6JREK — Fri, 23 Oct 2020 07:10:05 GMT

I am converting the drawing which has so many notes in other languages such as Spanish etc.

Can we make an i-logic to replace all notes with defined text from any language using i-logic?

For static text is it very easy, but you need to specify languages from and to.

But this approach is very vulnerable. When somebody change anything in the text, this method can't translate it.

Better approach is to use some "textId" stored in LeaderNote attributes. Then user can specify this textId (select from list of corresponding texts) and then you store this id to attributes. When you start translation, you just read this textId and from target dictionary select appropriate text.

Sub Main Dim drawing As DrawingDocument = ThisDoc.Document Dim activeSheet As Sheet = drawing.ActiveSheet For Each oLeaderNote As LeaderNote In activeSheet.DrawingNotes.LeaderNotes Dim oldText = oLeaderNote.FormattedText Dim newText = Translate(oldText, "en", "es") If newText IsNot Nothing Then oLeaderNote.FormattedText = newText End If Next End Sub Dim enDictionary As New List(Of String)({ "EN description" }) Dim esDictionary As New List(Of String)({ "ES descripción" }) Dim deDictionary As New List(Of String)({ "DE Beschreibung" }) Function Translate(oldText As String, fromLang As String, toLang As String) As String Dim fromDictionary = GetDictionary(fromLang) Dim toDictionary = GetDictionary(toLang) Dim i = fromDictionary.IndexOf(oldText) If i >= 0 Then Return toDictionary(i) Else Return Nothing End If End Function Function GetDictionary(lang As String) As List(Of String) Select Case lang Case "en" Return enDictionary Case "es" Return esDictionary Case "de" Return deDictionary Case Else Return Nothing End Select End Function
