Using a Text List

A text list is a table of text entries which lists an entry with a text ID, the default text, and its translations into other languages. At this central location, you can add a new text or further edit an existing text entry. It is used to be able to use texts in multiple languages in a project.

The texts are stored centrally and accessed primarily by visualizations. The text list is the basis for localization, selecting a language, and changes languages in visualizations.

When and how a text list is downloaded to a controller can be selected in the object properties of the text list object. By default, the text list is downloaded to the controller together with the application.
