Most of the BodySlide and Outfit Studio user interface can be translated into any other language. This is done through functionality built into the wxWidgets GUI library.

Creating translations

To help out with creating or editing translations, you should get the free version of the program Poedit. They can also be modified with any regular text editor and then compiled with Poedit, but that's not recommended.

Poedit

Find the existing BodySlide.po file in the folder of the translation you want to edit.
Examples:

If the .po file is empty and you want to create a new translation, open up the lang/BodySlide.pot template instead.

Now that you've opened up either a template or existing translation, you can start editing. To update a .po translation with new entries that have been added to the .pot template, choose Catalogue -> Update from POT file in Poedit.

Update from template

Make sure to provide both the .po (source text) and .mo (compiled text) of your translations in pull requests, so that everyone can benefit from them!

Using translations

To actually change the language that's being used, open up the settings dialog and make use of the language choice (see Installation and Settings).
