Overall project provides an overview of the configured project. Only features that are configured are listed. Every displayed node represents a button in WebOffice 10 R3 project configuration. This way all settings can be changed, even the user view (map centric – data centric – map centric basic) can be changed afterwards.

Overall project configuration

Properties that can only be defined here are:

Min. user input length	Specifies the necessary count of characters typed in by the user before the list box will be populated automatically with the values (works similar to e.g. You Tube suggestions). Note: The minimum user input length configured at this place is also valid for the full-text search.

Max hits	Set maximum count of hits shown in result. Note: If this attribute is not set, the corresponding value from "Defaults" will be used.
Maximum expanded results	Maximum size of a result list to be displayed automatically expanded in the "Result of Full-Text Search". A larger result list is displayed as a contracted node unless all results belong to the same layer.
Number of suggestions	Specifies the number of values given as suggestions for the full-text search. The suggestion elements are ordered by their search ranking (i.e. how precisely a result value fits the given search query). Elements with identical ranking are alphanumerically ordered. Caution: The list of suggestion may not contain all resulting values, but only as many as configured here. Note: If this attribute is not set, the corresponding value from "Defaults" will be used.
Max suggestion name length	The maximal length for displaying a suggestion value. Suggestion values of results with a longer object name are truncated and displayed with a trailing "..". If a layer is configured to show the layer name in the full-text search suggestion (to be configured under "Search result view -> Layer name in full-text suggestion?"), the layer name will occupy a portion of the length defined here).
Max suggestion layer name length	Maximally displayed length of the layer name when that is to be displayed as a part of the full-text search suggestion. Layer names that are too long are truncated and displayed with a trailing "..". Note: Configuration under "Search result view -> Layer name in full-text suggestion?" See also chapter Search Results.
Consider layer visibility	Specifies whether the layer visibility settings in the TOC (table of content) should be taken into account. If "Yes" is configured, full-text search results and suggestions will only be given for layers that are defined as visible. Possible visibility scale ranges are not being taken into account.

The wizard is used to override the WebOffice default/standard text form of the HTML web office client. The changes are stored in the '<WebOffice-Applikation>\client-workspace\JSXAPPS\weboffice\jss\language_weboffice_user.xml' and remain, although a new patch or service pack is installed. WebOffice messages offers a unique way to support customization of the WebOffice default/standard text. Once a language has been selected for which the user has decided to overwrite the WebOffice default/standard text, WebOffice author will list all standard language text options available.

To sort the column content ascending or descending, click on the column header. Column content can also be filtered for certain criteria by applying the control-filter button. Furthermore, the user can enter text into the column User defined text, which the Client should display instead of the predefined default/standard text in WebOffice 10 R3. The Clients custom text can be reverted back to the default language by simply setting the custom text field to blank. Click Apply to accept changes.

Use this button to use the multilingual support of WebOffice author. You can check consistency, correctness and completeness of translations of language specific text values.

Prerequisite to use this function is that you have opened a project configuration.

After having chosen the primary language (Base language) and the language you want to complete and correct (Target language), WebOffice author lists all of the language text values and their translations. You can edit the list immediately.

Translations dialog – Releasing language bundles
Translations can be done inside this list, or can be done while configuring a language specific field immediately.

Edit language dependent texts in configuration

Using the Integrity check button, WebOffice author checks the WebOffice 10 R3 client resource bundle of the Target language for completeness.

Using the Release target language button you are able to control if and when a specific language resource bundle for the WebOffice 10 R3 client is released.

Using the Remove release button right to the Released languages list, an already released language can be removed from the released WebOffice 10 R3 client resource bundles.

If you want to provide your language dependent texts to a translation office, you can export and re-import these texts as xml files.

Export your base language:

Export base language dependent texts

Translate the base language texts inside the source tag to the target language inside the destination tag:

Translate the language dependent texts in a UTF-8 editor

Choose the target language, release it (ignore the warning) and import the target language:
