Languages Settings¶
digiKam has been localized into at least dozens of languages.
You can change digiKam's primary language from the menu item. This opens a dialog where you can select the Primary language and add an optional Fallback language. The primary language determines which translated strings will be used in the application, and this will be your native language. The fallback language is used to fill-in translations if any internationalized strings are missing from the primary set of strings.
The digiKam Languages Configuration Dialog¶
Translating an application such as digiKam is a long task and requires a lot of verification and validation before it is made available in the production code. Each language is maintained by independent teams which release updates at different times, that are not necessarily in sync with digiKam release dates.
注釈
You can set more than one fallback language in digiKam, the lead one is on the top of this list.
The drop-down menu used for selecting a language contains a long list of entries, so scrolling may be required. There are currently more than 70 language teams, providing translations for a wide variety of languages, including some that are often not supported by proprietary software.
The List of Languages Available to Internationalize the Application¶
重要
A language setting change requires the application be restarted before the change takes effect.
