How Can I Refresh UI Language After Change Language?

[wlchfl5359]

I just tried with new canvas and I added 'UI Localization Manager.cs' and it works!

I think I have a problem with my Dialogue Manager. I have only 1 UILocalizationmanager.cs but it doesn't work.

Hi,

That should be fine. The UILocalizationManager can be anywhere; it doesn't have to be on the Dialogue Manager.

I found a problem.

I was looking at code

public void UpdateUIs(string language)
{
m_currentLanguage = language;
if (saveLanguageInPlayerPrefs)
{
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(currentLanguagePlayerPrefsKey))
{
PlayerPrefs.SetString(currentLanguagePlayerPrefsKey, language);
}
}

var localizeUIs = m_alsoUpdateInactiveLocalizeUI
? GameObjectUtility.FindObjectsOfTypeAlsoInactive<LocalizeUI>()
: FindObjectsOfType<LocalizeUI>();

for (int i = 0; i < localizeUIs.Length; i++)
{
localizeUIs.UpdateText();
}
}

and I just turned off "Also Update Inactive Localize UI" and it works well.
I don't know why this happened.

Hi,

I'll investigate that.

Thank you.
Please tell me if there is a problem.

I've confirmed that m_alsoUpdateInactiveLocalizeUI works correctly in a test scene. Can you send a reproduction project to tony (at) pixelcrushers.com?

Hi, I have a question about the same topic. I'm using the method DialogueManager.Instance.SetLanguage to set the language when the user changes it from the options menu. This works correctly, but if a dialogue is active, the language does not change until the dialogue node ends and moves to the next one. Is there any way to make that UI update immediately? So that as soon as the player returns from the options menu, the subtitle language is already updated? Thank you!

Hi,

If you're showing a subtitle, you can replay the same dialogue entry:

Code: Select all

var state = DialogueManager.converationModel.GetState(DialogueManager.currentConversationState.subtitle.dialogueEntry);
DialogueManager.conversationController.GotoState(state);

If you're showing a response menu, just call DialogueManager.UpdateResponses().

Thanks for the quick response!

Is this the only way? I ask because besides the subtitles, I also use sequences in the dialogue nodes that trigger other things like sounds, animations, etc. So it doesn't seem very efficient to replay the entire dialogue node just to update the subtitles' language.

You could tell the subtitle panel to update its content:

Code: Select all

var subtitle = DialogueManager.currentConversationState.subtitle;
subtitle.formattedText = FormattedText.Parse(subtitle.dialogueEntry.currentDialogueText);
DialogueManager.standardDialogueUI.ShowSubtitle(subtitle);
