Toggle between English and French

Hi,
I need to be able to display in a navigation page a button/link which, when you click on it, toggles the language for the entire portal display. That is, if I start in English, the button/link would read "Francais" and when selected, do the equivalent of the Set Language Portlet.
Is there a programmic way of mimicking the behavior of the Set Language portlet - passing in the needed language instead of listing them and having the user select from the list.
This is for a Canadian Government Intranet where the standard is to have a top set of navigation buttons the first of which is always the "Francais/English" button. Has anyone else done this before?
Thanks,
Ted

Most people use the "globe" key for that (after activating the keyboards you want to use in settings > general > keyboards, of course).

    How can I toggle between landscape and portrait modes in Nokia E72?

    You can't do that because of the screen orientation which is landscape only in case of E72, E71, E5.

  • How to make my applicatio​n programmat​ically switch between English and Russian

    Greetings from Colorado...
    My application needs to be switchable between English and Russian.  Future languages to add are Spanish and Chinese.  The user selects a language
    from a control before starting the program and then the program changes the Captions, Boolean Texts, Graph Labels, and Enum Type Strings to the
    chosen language.  For Russian, this requires a different set of characters.  I have made substantial progress by:
    Control Panels>Region and Language>Keyboards and Languages>Change Keyboards added Russian>Keyboard>Russian on my development
    computer.
    In the LabVIEW.ini file, I added UseUnicode=TRUE (thanks to a suggestion found in this forum)
    Made property nodes for controls and used properties such as Interpret As Unicode (True for Russian, False for English), Text, Font Name, Font Size, etc.
    I have used fonts Arial and Arial CYR for Russian and MS Sans Serif for English
    Set the keyboard for Russian and enter Cyrillic characters into text constants that are set for Arial or Arial CYR font.  Sometimes one works and
    sometimes the other works.  As long as I set the font name in the property node the same way the text went into the text constant, it generally
    works.  I wish I could understand why one works sometimes and the other works other times!
    I have had trouble with the Boolean Text going off-center when changing fonts and languages and it seems that by setting the Lock Text In Center
    property to False and then True again, it seems to work.  Often changing Boolean texts between short and long texts causes some of the long text
    to be non-displayed; I have remedied this by explicitly setting the width of the Boolean text in a property node.
    Often, the Russian text appears as gibberish with strange right-angle characters, :s, =s, and tiny numbers.  I have been able to remedy this on my
    development computer by ensuring that the text constant on the block diagram has the same size as the caption is supposed to have.  This
    is not necessary for normal programming in English, but it seems to help here.  But it doesn't always solve the problem.
    Sometimes the English text appears as Chinese gibberish in an Enum Type selection list or in a graph label.  On my development computer,
    it seems that making the text the last property to change helps here.
    By changing the sequences of assignments to a single property node with a long list of properties, I have been able to make some of these
    controls to switch between languages without gibberish showing up.
    A few hours ago, I had the Russian strings in the Enum Type control working, except that when selecting from the available items, only the first
    word of the Russian string was displayed.  Two of the items start with the same word, so the user can't distinguish them.  
    At that time the English strings were appearing as Chinese gibberish while the list during the selection process displayed in English.  As soon
    as I changed the selection, future attempts to change the selection gave Chinese gibberish during the selection process, too.  But this was only
    a problem in the executable version; the source-code version worked fine.
    In an attempt to get rid of the Chinese gibberish, I made new constants and retyped the items into them.  This worked!  But then, the Russian
    stopped working and gave gibberish angles and tiny numbers, even though I didn't touch any of the code that sets the properties in Russian mode.
    After trying a few sequences of setting the properties for the graph X label on page 2 of my tab control, this label started working correctly for both
    languages.  But the text of that label comes through on page 1 of the tab control, partly obscured by other controls on that page.  After the
    program runs a few more seconds, these shadows disappear.
    Most times I restart LabVIEW, I get an error message saying there was a crash due to fontmgr.cpp, line 7494.  But there actually wasn't a crash.
    My computer has Windows 7 64-bit.  Deployment Computer has Windows 7 32-bit.  LabVIEW version is 8.5.  
    I have probably 50 or 100 more controls and indicators to change to language programmability and figuring out all this stuff for each one is
    terribly time-consuming and there is no assurance that all of them will ever work.  
    At this point, I'm hoping that I am on an entirely wrong path and someone will send me a clue to get me on a path that is more predictable.
    Thanks in advance to all who post ideas!
    Cheers

    Hi All,
    I've made a lot of progress on this translation, but it's been really hard.  There are lots of weird things going on that must be logical because they're in a computer, but I can't figure out what the logic is.  When changing a font on a caption using the front panel, it sometimes changes the font on the caption and sometimes doesn't although the indicator always indicates the new font.  Removing the first character of the unicode font string being sent to the caption seems to help...huh?  Anyway, tabs still can't change language programmatically, and niether can ring controls (some kinds will take the new list of strings, but when selecting, they only display the first word of the string!).  Boolean text can be reprogrammed, but only if the boolean text is set to be the same for both true and false states.  When reprogramming captions on a non-displayed page of a multi-page tab-controlled user interface, the new text appears on the current page until I change pages back and forth.  What a pain!
    Sooo, NI....does LabVIEW 2011 have support for unicode fonts?  Or, is there anything else in the new control style that will support programmatic language changing?

  • Getting remote context to "s1" is toggling between "s1" and "s2"

    I'm on WLS8.1SP4.
    I have an app that runs on my admin server, which communicates to a custom mbean hosted on my cluster (managed servers "s1" and "s2"). Some of the operations in the app send the same message to both "s1" and "s2", and some of the operations target either "s1" or "s2".
    Each time the app needs to connect to the mbean on a specific server, it gets the remote context to the server, using the Environment object, setting the provider URL to the URL for that server (I've watched this in the debugger). From that remote context, it does the JNDI lookup, gets the RemoteMBeanServer object, builds the ObjectName for the attribute (most of the calls are just attribute get/set calls), and then calls "getAttribute()" on the remoteMBeanServer. This all seems ok.
    Here's where something goes wrong. What I see happening is very odd. When the application first starts, it makes a set of calls specifically to "s1" and "s2". This first set of calls appears to be ok. However, when I make it go through the same set of calls again, all the calls that specifically build a URL for "s1" actually end up calling "s2". I can verify this by monitoring the debug output in the "get" methods in the mbean code. When I make it go through the calls again, it does them correctly. It very consistently toggles back and forth between "s1" calling "s1" and "s1" calling "s2".
    I'm at a loss to understand why this is happening.
    My admin server (where the main app is running) is Win2k Server, and the managed servers are Solaris 8.
    I've managed to repeat this on a different domain, but hosted on the same distribution and set of servers.
    I filed a ticket for this, and the engineer is working on building a test case to see if they can repeat this.
    I tried one experiment they wanted me to try, by adding the admin server to the cluster, effectively making the main app communicate to "s1", "s2", and "adminServer". What I saw happen with this configuration is that calls to "adminServer" always went to "adminServer", and the same with "s2". The calls to "s1" continued to toggle between "s1" and "s2".

    Minor clarification: I realized that the domain this is on is actually running 8.1SP2 (not SP4).

  • Toggle between Rosetta and Universal

    I just installed Flip4mac wmv, in the post is suggested that I select Rosetta in the Get info panel that all went well and I was able to watch the wmv file, no problem.
    My question is how do I get out of or toggle out of Rosetta back into Universal. I have looked on different sites, I must have missed something, I can't seem to figue out how to do this.
    Please excuse my lack on knowledge, this is my second week on a Mac.
    Many thanks.

    I went into Quicktime and was able to select Get Info to change to Rosetta, yet there is no option to go back to universal. What I m reading on the posts that suggested that you can toggle between Rosetta and Universal, or am I misreading that.?

  • Agent Desktop's agent state toggles between "ready" and "reserved

    Hello and thanks for all of your past help.  I have a user whos'e Agent Desktop's agent state toggles between "ready" and "reserved when no calls are coming in to he IP Phone 7941 or 7961.  Can anyone help?
    Thanks, Chet

    Is the agent's phone actually ringing at all? If not I suspect the IP IVR ports are unable to call the agent. UCCX tries to send a call to the agent so it sends the reserve event to the agent and then tries to send the call to the agent but is failing so it cancels the event flicking the agent back into ready. Perhaps check to make sure that the ports have an appropriate calling search space to call the agent extension. Maybe configure a phone the same as the IVR port and check to see if you can call the agent extension?
    Cheers,

  • How to change the capture resolution of CaptureDevice and toggle between front and rear camera

    Hi. I'm using Visual Studio 2013, and the Windows Phone App template. I'm using the Microsoft.Devices / CaptureVideo API to capture video. I now want to set the resolution to capture the video in a specific(available) resolution. How do I do that?
    Code snippet reference to API:
    CaptureVideo vcDevice = CaptureDeviceConfiguration.GetDefaultVideoCaptureDevice();
    and I also want to put a button there to toggle between front and rear camera. If I click the button, and the rear camera is currently active, the front camera must become active and vice versa. How do I do that with this API?
    Thank you.

  • Maintaining F1 help in English and French

    Hi,
    I have a request for all users to have the SRM in English.
    But in France, we would like to have the context menu in French.
    With above requirement, I have following questions: -
    1. Can this online help overwrite standard one if standard one exists? If yes, how?
    2. Can we maintain translations and propose choice of language if the user is connected in EN or will we have to maintain the u201CEnglishu201D text both in English and French?
    3. What is the procedure to maintain this Context help? Creation in dev system and then transport?
    4. Can we highlight somehow the fact that for a specific field we have a context help?
    Please help,
    Amey

    Hi,
    if you want to provide F1 help in both EN and FR while users are logged on in EN, then this is a customer specific requirement.
    SAP standard would be that English speaking users logon with EN (and getting F1 help in EN only - without a choice to select an alternative language) and French speaking users logon with FR (getting both F1 help and standard menus in FR).
    Of course you can extend the SAP standard help by additional texts, but this is somehow treated like a modification and you need to save this during upgrades or applying support packages ...
    Hence I would  recommend to use the standard and let French speaking users logon in French.
    Best regards,
    Nils Buerckel

  • PLMD_AUDIT - Toggle between Display and Change - Important!!

    Hello all,
    I've a problem when I work on PLMD_AUDIT.
    Pre-requisite for replicating the issue.
    1> Change the settings in PLMD_AUDIT (a face like icon) to Display mode
    When I run PLMD_AUDIT for an Audit with Action, it displays me the "Grouping" field and the "Involved Persons" tab values correctly.
    But when I toggle from Display to Change, the value in "Grouping" and the "Involved Persons" tab vanishes.
    Can you please check in your system and let me know if you also face this issue?
    Thank you in advance,
    Vaishnavi

    Hello Keerthi,
    Thanks for your reply.
    Please follow the below mentioned steps.
    1) Change your time zone to a different time zone other than the created time zone of the action.
    say if action has been created in London time zone, change system zone to some other than London.
    2) Change the Settings in PLMD_AUDIT tcode (face like icon) to Display
    3) Open any audit WITH ACTION.
    4) When you double click on Action inside the audit, the action will be opened in Display mode.
    5) Now toggle between Display and Change.
    6) Kindly check if the values in the "Grouping field" and BUPA roles in "Involved Persons" tab are present now after toggling?
    Please let me know at the earliest.
    Your assistance is highly appreciated in this regard.
    Thanks in advance,
    Vaishnavi

    Hi,
    If agent is getting Reserved and if the call did not arrive to the agent, there few things we need to check like
    * This mostly happens only for few agents with similar series of Extension (like 5XXX)
    * Phone which has this problem, you need to check the Partition/CSS setting from CUCM side
    * You can check Device Target is configured for that Extension (mostly people use Agent Targeting Rule with the range of    Extensions, make sure this exension is covered in that range)
    * You can check in you CVP, whether you have Routes configured for this series of extensions.
    But usually if this kind of instance happened for an agent for 2 call, the Agent should be moved into NOT READY state automatically by the system with the Reason code 50010.
    Are you sure they are going to Ready state ? Are they manually chaning the state to Ready state or it is automatic
    There are lot of posts in the forum with similar issues
