Multiple Language Keyboard

We are developing an Application on an HMI which has a touch panel PC (IExplore hardware), for which we have to provide multiple language (UTF8 Encoding) support for the user.
Wish to know if there is any library available for Keypad to change based on the Language Selection.
One of the challenge being a touch panel PC being multiple languages having different character set.
The windows language keypad may not be an option, since, the character displayed on the keyboard would always be English, even though the input language could be changed.
Thanks.

Multiple Keyboards With Multiple Languages

Hello,
I am working for a French company and need to use French keyboard all the time. I do however keep my "querty" keyboard plugged in as well, since "azerty" (the French official layout) is not my favorite.
I would like to know if there is a feature or programming/scripting solution, allowing Windows to automatically switch between languages depending on the keyboard from which we are inputting the text.
This way, instead of having to change the language every time I need to type a French mail, I would just pull out my French keyboard (comfortably located on the lower drawer of my desk) and start typing while Windows seemingly passes to the pre-configured
language for that keyboard.
I am a J2EE developer with some .NET and Win32 knowledge so do not be afraid to go technical :)
Thank you very much for your attention.
Best Regards,
Alexander Kirilov

Hi Alexander,
I have no idea of making it automatically when change a physical keyboard ,but we can set it by simply pressing “Ctrl +0” to change the language .
Control Panel \All Control Panel Items\Region and Language\Keyboards and Languages\Change keyboards\General
Add the French language here and set the keyboard for it ,and then set a hot keys for it (for example “Ctrl +0” ).Now we can easily switch to French by pressing “Ctrl +0” when we plug in our physical keyboard.
Best regards

Multiple languages autocorrect issues

On my iPhone, I added multiple languages and on the keyboard appears the 'globe' to choose one before writing an email. That way, autocorrect adjusts to that language. I added languages to my MacBook Air Air as well, but autocorrect sticks with English and makes my writing in other languages diffcult. Is there a way to have that same iPhone feature for my MacBook (and not having to switch languages in settings or turn off autocorrect)?

Not really. OS X works totally differently in this area than iOS, the keyboard setting being irrelevant. The most you can do is go to system preferences/language & text/text/spelling/setup and check the boxes for the languages you want and then set it to "automatic" and see whether it does anything useful for you.

ATV2: No sorting? / multiple languages?

The new ATV software really makes me wonder whether Apple has thought this through. I have two major issues:
--SORTING / SEARCH--
OK, we get it. Apple wants to make more money on video. And I have to admit, it's nice to be able to search through the iTunes store and look up stuff by genre and all, but people who'll do this a lot also usually already have a whole bunch of stuff stored locally on their machins. Being someone who has ripped every DVD and CD I own to my computer, my Apple TV has to work with some 500 movies and 2,000 TV shows next to something above 20,000 songs coming from my iMac (and its external drives).
With software v1, I synced a video playlist with about 15 movies I'd like to watch in the coming days or weeks. I'd fire up my TV and there they were. I didn't have to remember their names - What's on the device was what I was going to watch. A nice manageable size list.
Now with v2 I see ALL of my movies at once. So, first I need to remember the titles by heart and then I need to start the ugly scrolling process that just makes me want to throw that thing out of the window. Try reaching a title starting with "W" as an example and scroll away some 250 movies... you get the idea.
So, why is there no searching, sorting or at least skipping to the next letter via the +/- buttons on the remote? Or better even, let me use my iPod Touch to control the interface. This thing actually has a keyboard, you know...?
--MULTIPLE LANGUAGES--
When iTunes finally got word of the fact that mp4 files are capable of holding more than one audio track, I happily started the time-consuming process of re-encoding all of my movies. Of course Apple will have built this into ATV 2 as well, no doubt about it! Yey, can't wait to get it!
Boy, was I disappointed to find out there is not even the slightest sign of such a functionality. No sub-menu to set your language pref for watching movies and no hip iTS styled selection-buttons awaited me after pressing 'enter' on a movie title.
ATV just takes the first language that's coded into the file. What a major mistake. Want to move people from the old silver disc to this shiny new set-top box? Then please don't disable things that are already there. The movie that's sitting on the box HAS two languages built into the file - just make them accessible.
But then again, Apple TV has turned into a shopping device, stepping away from being "iPod for your TV". We all knew that, didn't we? We just didn't think it'd be this brutal.

Does a multiple language supported Windows Phone 8 Application support Bengali Language (Bangladeshi language)?

Hello,
I am developing a Windows Phone 8 application (for Nokia/ Microsoft Lumia) where multiple languages will be supported. Now, it is needed to support Bengali (Bangladeshi language) in my Windows phone 8 application.
But, I didn't find Bengali language in the Setting -> Language -> phone Language. So could anyone tell me that a multiple language supported windows phone 8 application support Bengali language or not. If it is possible, then how user will change
the app language from phone setting?
FYI .. From Microsoft OEM documentation, I have known that Windows Phone 8.1 GDR2 includes support for Bangla (Bangladesh language).
Thanks

Hi NONAME-2007,
As far as I known the Bangla language is supported as a on-screen keyboard language on the Windows Phone 8. But it is not supported as a display language in Windows Phone 8, so you can not choose this language from the phone setting. For more information,
please try to refer to the following article:

Database storage of multiple languages for name of a single entity

Surely I'm not the first person to have this problem, but I can't find many resources on how to solve this. Just some background on what I'm working with, I'm running a web application using the Struts framework with jdk 1.4 on a Weblogic 8.1 server connected to an Oracle 9i database, I'm using DAO for my persistence layer, and I'm not opposed to using any 3rd party software to assist in this task.
For example, say I have a database of DVDs, My application will retrieve the list of DVDs from the database to display to the user. Depending on the user's Locale I want to display the title of the DVD in that language.
This is a simple example, but the real-world application is much more complicated. The application is highly configurable meaning that through a configuration application, my internal users can add DVDs at any time, edit the title of the DVD, or add a new language that they want the title to display in, etc. When a customer logs in to the application front-end they will be able to change the language they want the application to display in at any time, and the application will need to reflect that change. The display of constant text like field labels and page text is easy using Struts but its this configurable dynamic text thats a bit more difficult.
Its obvious to me that I will need to store the multiple languages in the database in some way, I'm thinking of either storage in some xml format, or a new table hanging off the "dvd" table with languages for each dvd. Either of these options would work for my purposes, but I don't want to go reinvent the wheel when this same problem has arleady been solved. If someone could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it

One common way to handle this is to modify your key for the dvd title to include a locale identifier:
key dvdtitle
becomes
key locale dvdtitle
Now your db can hold multiple translations of the same dvd title.

John O'Conner

Why do I get a popup message in multiple languages requiring a shutdown and restart

Why do I keep getting a popup message in multiple languages requiring a shutdown and restart? Has been going on for a few months. Because of the shutdown reports have been sent to Apple upon restart.

After it restarted, did you see a dialog box resembling this one:
If so, next time it occurs click Report...
Before you send it to Apple, copy the text of the report. Paste it in a reply. Remove or obscure any personal information, should it appear.
If problems continues to occur please determine if they also occur in "Safe Mode":
Safe Mode or "Safe Boot" is a troubleshooting mode that bypasses all third party system extensions and loads only required system components. Read about it: Starting up in Safe Mode
Starting your Mac in Safe Mode will take longer than usual, graphics will not render smoothly, audio is disabled on some Macs, and some programs (iTunes for example) may not work at all.
To end Safe Mode restart your Mac normally. Shutdown will take longer as well.

When trying to load multiple language versions of an ibook onto my iPad only the first document loads

We have a sales tool that we have created for one of our clients in iBooks Author. They need the iBook creating in various languages.
We need to be able to supply the multiple versions of the same document (in the different languages) to our client and they need to be able to install the different versions onto their iPads. And they want the options of having multiple language versions on the same iPads.
We have already created two language versions of the document (a US English and an International English version).
The two documents have different file names, (although they are based on the same document). We have just changed the spelling of some words accordingly. (And we will be producing other language variants based on the master file).
We export the two documents via the File > Export > iBooks option. Then we are using Dropbox to upload the two files. The files are then accessed via the Dropbox App on the iPad.
We can download the first document (International English) onto the iPad and view it as normal, but when we try and then download the other document (US English) it downloads in the Dropbox App, but when you click on view in iBooks it opens the first (International English) document into iBooks.
You can only appear to have one version of the document installed at any one time. If you delete the first one you can then load the second one fine, but not both at the same time. If the file names are different it must be getting the identity of the document from somewhere else.
This has only started happening since using iBooks Author 2.
Can anyone offer any suggestions please. I've tried changing the version number in the option on export, but this doesn't seem to affect the result.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
John

Further to my earlier post we have now completed a test by saving our original document as a template, then creating a new document from the template, making necessary changes and saving as a new file. We can now upload the two separate versions to our iPad.
You cannot "duplicate" the file in any way, either by the File > Duplicate method from within iBooks Author or by simply Duplicating the original .iba file in the Finder, as this will cause the problem outlined above. By Duplicating you are obviously also duplicating this "hidden metadata" which is stored somewhere within the file which iBooks on the iPad is using to identify the documents. So unless Apple update the software to allow us to change that metadata we are stuck to using the Templates route. (Didn't have this problem on the last version of iBooks Author).
This works for what we are trying to do, which is create different language variants of the same book.
Working from Templates is probably the correct way to do it anyway, but might not necessarily be right for everyone.
Working in iBooks Author is proving to be a rather testing experience. You certainly need the patience of a Saint. Not sure it's of the standard we expect from Apple, but then I guess, as they are giving it away "free", they think they don't have to offer any support for it.
I think I would prefer to pay a fee for it and have a support route from Apple, rather than rely on a community of equally frustrated users who are all playing guinea pig and simply sharing their workarounds for a half baked product.
Good luck to everyone!!!

With Pages 5.2 how can i use multiple language types in a single document

My Macbook Air Has the version 10.9.3
I'm used to work with the old version of Page.
But now I am using the new version of Pages 5.2 (1860).
I want to know with the new version how do I use an multiple language types in a single document option.
In the old version of Pages I was using Inspector -> Text -> "More" tab -> Language: British Inglese.
In the new Pages 5.2 I do not know how to do it
Could you help me?

It's not possible to tag text with multiple languages in Pages 5. Go back to Pages 4, which should still be in you iWork folder.
For the whole doc in Pages 5, use Edit > Spellling and Grammar > Show Spelling and Grammar.

How to accept multiple languages in a single report.

Hi,
We have a Web I report built based on universe(Oracle DB- Utf-8 codepage), In Data base tables there is a data with multiple languages. But when I run Web I report it is showing the data which is in english but data other than english is showing inverted "?". Could any one please suggest me how the data to be supported in all languages for the Web I report.
Thanks,
Mallareddy D.

You should be creating a universe using the table with filter utilizing a column which accepts a parameter value of language and shows the data in that specific language. This concept is already used in SAP standard audit universe which accepts language for any query and shows the data in that language.. The logic for the derived column for the table should look something like below Table.LANGUAGE = @Prompt(Select language)

Unit Of Measurement in Multiple Languages

Hi All,
I wants to maintain the basic UoM in multiple language like Norwagien or Danish etc. We have uploaded Norwagien/Danish languages for our client.
I have maintained my vendor language as norwagien/danish. Now while PO creating I am getting an error saying that basic UoM is not maintained in NO/DA language.
Can any one guide me the config. steps in Transaction code CUNI for Dimension, ISO code & UoM for NO/DA language.
Regards
Amit

Hi Laxman
Thanks for reply.....
I performed step guided by you but the desired langauge was not copied. I refered to one more link & discovred that we have to login into desired langauge & have to enter description of langauge manually.
After entering description I have created PO for vendor whoes communication langauge is other than English & PO was created sucessfully.
Thanks for inputs.......

A possible solution for "foreight language keyboard shortcut" problem...

Hi(Bonjour)!
Everyone know the problem of losy keyboard layout when Final Cut is used with foreight language keyboard. We loose the COMMAND-Q shorcut.
As PieroF suggested in many posts in final cut express forum, there is a workaround:
"+I just installed Leopard and I ran into this keyboard shortcut problem.+
+I can confirm that:+
+a. the problem exists also with the Italian keyboard (in addition to other languages, as pointed by other posters)+
+b. the workaround I described in my previous answer works fine :+
+- close FCE (if open)+
+- open System Preferences/International/Language+
+- drag English to the first place on top of the other languages+
+- drag your own language (Italian in my case) again on top of English (at the end the window will show the same original settings, but something happened in the heart of Leopard...)+
+- close System Preferences+
+- open FCE: now all shortcuts work as expected, and are correctly listed with their corresponding menu commands+
+It's a workaround, it's not convenient (I'd better have this bug fixed), but apparently you have to apply it only once for each system startup.+
Piero "
As stated by Piero, you have to follow this procedure after each computer startup.
I found a way to restore the COMMAND-Q shortcut with the keyboard and mouse system pref panel.
Simply add Final Cut application and add a +custom shotcut+. Be careful to type exactly the "Quit Final Cut Express" menu.
This solution allows to restart the computer.
It's work with Final Cut Express and Final Cut Pro under Leopard 10.5.4.
Michel Boissonneault

Hi Michel,
I like your suggestion because the keyboard shortcuts defined in the system preferences do not require redefinition at each startup. So in theory we could define all missing/wrong shortcuts this way, and not only the cmd-Q as you suggested. Boring, but we could do it once for all.
The only problem is that I don't know how to define shortcuts for submenus, for example "Render Selection/Both": it seems system preferences allows only to define shortcuts for the menu ("Render Selection" - in this case absolutely useless) but not for the submenu.
Do you know a way ? (I looked in the help, which didn't... help).
Piero

Multiple language data in the same table and indexes

We have 8.1.5 database with
NLS_LANGUAGE=ENGLISH and NLS_TERRITORY=UNITED KINGDOM set at the database level. We also set the NLS_LANG appropriately when we index the data. We also use the preference setting BASE_LETTER=YES when indexing.
Our tables contain book titles which is what we index using interMedia. Being an online book store, this table may contain titles in English (most of the titles are in English being UK) and some titles in French. Please note the French language has accents and diacritics. Normally in a French database with NLS parameters set correctly and BASE_LETTER=YES, if we search for a title with accent / diacritic it will return the record correctly and match the rows with or without the accents (e.g. searching for video will return both vidio (not the accent on e) and video). However, with the UK settings the accents are not ignored during indexing and it only returns the records that exactly match the search word (e.g. searching for video returns only video and searching for vidio returns only vidio (note the accents on e in the last two videos)).
Question: Is there any way to appropriately index multiple language specific titles in the same database? If yes, how? Is it possible at all? Suggestions, ideas are welcome.
null

Similar request; if there are several different languages used in a database, but a search word can be typed in by anyone and not necessarily in the default language, I still want to be able to pick up all the records (including text in blobs) in any language where my search word = the equivelant word in the other languages; eg. searching on "tree", the search would bring back a document that contained "l'arbre". I then want to set the default language, and allow the user to select a "search in these languages" option to expand the search from the default "tree" to all languages in the database.
I know about the multi_Lexer but does it extend functionality to this level?

Best practice in working with Adobe forms in multiple languages

We have to provide access to some Adobe Interactive Forms in both English and French, some of them from Web Dynpro application(s), some of them as callable objects from Guided Procedures.
1- We know for sure that we can have two copies of each form, one in English and one in French but that implies duplicating the FormCalc and Javascript code behind.
2- Another way if to modify in javascript all labels, captions using some javascript i.e. If lang = "E" then "My label" else "Mon étiquette" . It would work but it is not very efficient.
Is someone here has experience with this type of situation and would be willing to share his experience with me?
Thanks in advance,

Hi Benoit,
For Adobe Forms in multiple language you can use include text solution also . Within this solution you need to add a language parameter in your interface and then retrieve the include text in the language value ( not current language ) . Personnaly i used a lot this solution with Smartforms text .
Also i used dictionnary text for text linked with data dictionnary element . For this there is standard function module in SAP .
Anothers way is in the SFP editor you can translate your form as in SAPSCRIPT .
Hope this help you
Regard.
PS : if necessary i can send you a sample form with smartform/Dictionnary text solution.
