Settings in the Language Files

Preliminary note

For translating the arc weld report items there are translation files for each provided language (English, French, Chinese, Japanese, German).

By default the language files are located in the E2 installation path …\Lib\site-packages\cenpylib\languages.

In case of customization, the complete languages folder can be copied to a desired path, which is given with the Create command. Otherwise the report takes the default files.

Customer related settings and translation can be done there. Only the desired language file needs to be edited.

Following listed settings are supported to adjust the report. If the items doesn’t exist, the defaults form the script will be taken.

Default report name

defaultreportname

This item is the default PDF file name, where :

• double plus ++ (if given) will be replaced with the current controller name.
• double hashes ## (if given) will be replaced with the current program name.

Font

setfontname

This item sets the desired font type.

Please note : for Chinese and Japanese language only one set of characters exists. This setting is obsolete in this case.

This item sets the desired font size.

The font size will be taken into account for Chinese and Japanese as well.

Command name

commandname

This item sets the desired command name in the Run auxiliary commands if the method GetCommandName is prepared accordingly (see below).

   cmdname = nls.getNLS("commandname", "Arc Welding Report")
