Localizing an Object’s Design-Time Environment

InstallShield 2025

Project: This information applies to the InstallScript Object project.

For each of the languages in which the InstallShield interface is localized, you can specify a different display name, short name, .htm file, and icon for your object. You perform this localization on the Project Settings dialog box’s Language-Specific Object Properties tab.

The first option on the Language-Specific Object Properties tab is the IDE Language list box. Select the first language you would like to support and, if it is not English, uncheck the Use Default box. Then, fill in the rest of the Language-Specific Object Properties Tab.

If you are only supporting one language, you can close this dialog box. However, if you plan on supporting additional languages, you can select the next language from the list and provide the necessary information for that language.

Note:If you create your own wizard, you will need to provide run-time strings in the wizard’s executable file for each language that you are supporting.
