User Interface Language

Former Member

Dear All,

 

I'd like to use English for my user interface,

but when I update to 5.3.0.

Eagle CAD default chooses Simplified Chinese for my UI.

 

How can I switch to English?

 

Thanks,

Troy

    EAGLE decides depending on the operating systems' language which

    language to use. If the systems' language variable is set to chinese,

    EAGLE will use chinese language.

     

    What you can do to change EAGLE's language:

     

    You could define an environment variable EAGLE takes care on.

    Go to the Windows Control Panel where you can define environment

    variables. Set up a variable named LANG.

    For english language the value should be set to en_GB or en_US.

     

    You could this define with the help of a batch file, like in this

    example:

     

      SET LANG=en_GB

      C:\Program files\eagle-5.x.x\bin\eagle.exe

     

    This is of use, if there are also other applications that react on

    the LANG variable. The batch affects EAGLE, only.

     

    What I wrote for Windows, works for Linux or Mac, as well.

    There you have to define the varaible with the systems' EXPORT

    command. Or use a script file:

     

       LANG=en_GB

       /home/user/eagle-5.x.x/bin/eagle

     

    Hope this helps.

    Which language is the primary language of eagle and which

    are the translated ones? I want to install the language with

    least translation problems.

     

    Kind regards,

    The source text is English and translated into German immediately.

    Or maybe sometimes the other way round.....

    I'ld say both languages are on a par.
