Localize the asset user interface
 
 
 

You can customize templates and views to provide translated published names and descriptions for your assets. The <label> and <description> elements (which let you change the display text for your asset) support the display of text in different languages. See also Localization elements: Interface labels and descriptions.

To localize the display text in a template or view

  1. Add <label> and <description> tags to any element whose display text you want to localize, if they do not already exist.

    Labels and descriptions can be added to any element of your template file. See Parts of an asset template for more information.

  2. Within the label and description tags, define the language you want to use by adding the language attribute.

  3. Within the <label> and <description> tags, enter the text you want to display in your asset user interface.
    NoteThe <label> text will display as the attribute name in the Attribute Editor and as the tooltip text when users mouse over the attribute in the Asset Editor. The <description> text displays as a tooltip over the attribute in the Attribute Editor.
