Configure language settings

Language settings

You can set language preferences for the Drone2Map application and help system.

To open the Language settings, follow these steps:

  1. From an open project, click the Project tab on the ribbon. Alternatively, from the Drone2Map start page, click About Drone2Map in the lower right corner.
  2. In the list on the left, click Settings.
  3. On the Settings dialog box, under Application, click Language.

Display language (requires language pack installation)

You can run a translated version of Drone2Map if you install a language pack. You can get a language pack from your distributor or My Esri. When a language pack is installed, you can set Drone2Map to display the user interface in the corresponding language.

By default, the Drone2Map user interface matches the Microsoft Windows display language. For example, if your Windows display language is German, and you have also installed a German language pack for Drone2Map, the application displays the user interface in German.

To run Drone2Map in a display language other than the Windows display language, follow these steps:

  1. Under Display language (requires language pack installation), uncheck the Match Microsoft Windows check box.
  2. Use the drop-down menu to choose a language from the list of installed languages.
  3. Restart Drone2Map.

    This option only changes the display language of the Drone2Map user interface. It does not affect functionality related to number and date formatting or character encoding, which are controlled by your Windows region settings. In addition, this setting is for Drone2Map only and does not affect the display of other Esri applications on the same machine.

    To return Drone2Map to the Windows display language, check Match Microsoft Windows.

Proofing language

As with the display language, the proofing language matches Windows by default. To change it, under Proofing language (requires operating system language pack installation), uncheck the Match Microsoft Windows check box and choose from the available languages. It is not necessary to restart Drone2Map.

Note:
The Proofing language setting is not available on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 operating systems. On these operating systems, spell-check is only available for English, Spanish, French, and German. The proofing language is controlled by the Display language setting for Drone2Map.

Online help system language

The Drone2Map online help language matches the display language by default but can be changed. Language packs are not needed to change this setting. To select a different language, under Online help system language, uncheck the Match display language check box and choose from the available languages. It is not necessary to restart Drone2Map.

Tip:

When you're using the online help system, you can also change the language from the drop-down menu in the upper right corner of your browser.
