Change language

Thank you! Do you think it makes sense if I create a PR where you can change language settings?

Hello,

can you please tell me, how can I activate for example a hu.po translate file?
I compiled Linuxcnc from source, and find the translate files. But i dont know how to activate them.
If i change the linux language, Gmoccapy will follow the system lang, but in this case for some reason the preview path will offsetted. See in this topic:

forum.linuxcnc.org/gmoccapy/32592-tool-p...er-changing-language

Maybe if i just use Gamoccapy with translate file, and the linux system remain on english, maybe the path offset will solved.

locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, '') 
Maybe this need to edit in gmoccapy.py file? 


Thanks for help.

gmoccapy will check the locale settings of the system and set the language automatically.

For testing I just rename the de.po file to be de.old and then the hu.po to be de.po
This is just a work around, but it helps me to see if translation files fit the screen sizes.

Thanks,

i tested it, but it works just if i set linux to Geman language. (de.po -> hu.po)
But if linux is on english language dont works. Becouse no en.po file which to rename to. Maybe the default language is english. Where can i find the english language file? I plan to rewrite it by hand

try to change gmoccapy.po file.
English is default, so it may be necessary also to change the strings in the code. I have never tried to set a different language while computer is in english. I am using German settings in OS.
