Hi,

i'm after a bit of newbie advise please, I'd tried several ideas and only result in the screen locking up.

I want to change the language on my config by pressing a an image of the corresponding flag of the country. (I'm using a PV450 Touch)

All the text in my config is using the multi language text widgets, all have the text filled in for the 4 languages I want to use.

I've created a variable called "Language_Index" with enumeration values for each the 4 languages( 0=English, 1=German, 2=French, 3=Spanish)




I've made the flag images fire events on touch, which have an action that fires a condition to set the "Language_Index" variable = to one of the languages above, followed by a "Screen->Process((Empty))" action. It compiles, but the screen locks up when pressing any of the flags.


what am i missing..?

many thanks, Dave.

Dave,

What you describe doesn't look like it would be the cause of a problem.
Can you private message the configuration to me so that we can test it?

Thank you,
Boyce

After testing the configuration I see it is causing a loop. What you can do is fire calculation events rather than the condition events. I added enumeration values on the LanguageSelection variable with calculation events: The touch action fires the calculation event: This is changing the LanguageSelection variable directly. You can change it to change the Language_Index variable if you need that.

many thanks Boyce :)

I'll give that a go.

thanks, Dave.

Calculation events:

Many thanks for this boyce, works like a dream now. I didn't realise there was a screen application "Language Selection" that already existed.
Apologies for not reporting back sooner.
