Please, german language support!

Ridiculous, that I've to pay for something, that should be part of Windows8 by default

Hello,

 

I like it, but please support also german language! I think there is not to much text for translation.

 

Best regards,

Is it possible that you create variations of language files in different languages? I really would prefer Start8 in my native language.

The menu itself should be translated, but the config UI is not currently.  The UI does have some translation in the next update for the shutdown options and the right hand list items.

Going forward we plan to allow translation support of the config UI too, but we need to be sure the UI is finished as there is nothing worse than adding new controls and they appear untranslated.

  8.                 Restart = Neu starten
  9.                   Sleep = Energie sparen
  10.               Hibernate = Ruhezustand
  11.                 Network = Netzwerk
  12.              Connect to = Verbinden mit

  16. Immersive Control Panel = PC-Einstellungen
  17.           Accessibility = Erleichterte Bedienung
  18.             Accessories = Windows-Zubehör (Windows 8)
  19.             Accessories = Zubehör (Windows 7)
  20.    Administrative Tools = Verwaltung

Not in my case, some parts of the menu are translated and some aren't:

 

 

 Is there a setting or config file I could edit to correct this???

1.02 but it seems that all I needed was a re-start although the installer didn't prompt me for that   It's working fine now.

 

I installed 1.02 on top of 1.01 (not uninstall > install), don't know if that's what caused it.

Update: Start8 1.03 German language

 

The German translation in the context menu of "Configure Start8..." with "Konfigurieren Start8..." is a bad translation, is not typical for Windows.

Please change "Konfigurieren Start8..." to "Start8 konfigurieren..."

 

Code: css
  1. Left side:
  3.          Windows 8 Menu = Windows 8 Menü
  4.             Maintenance = Wartung
  5.  Modern UI Applications = Modern-UI-Anwendungen
  8. Context menu from start button:
  10.     Configure Start8... = Start8 konfigurieren...

Thats because it is simulated.  We have no knowledge of the order of the languages so rather than leave it as "Configure Start8", we opted to take "Configure" in the native language and append "Start8..."

Hello Neil,

 

for the context menu "Start8..." could be enough, I think.

 

Code: css
  1.   Start8... = Start8...
  2.      Run... = Ausführen...
  3. Shutdown... = Herunterfahren...

Hello from germany.

Yesterday i found Start8 in the www and installed it on my pc. It seems to be a nice program.   So i made a german translation for Start8 v 1.1 beta 2. Made with a trial version.

You can find my file here . I am using this space so i can easily update/upload changes.

It would be nice to see this translation as a part of Start8. 

By the way:

  • Right click on Start button shows a menu. In this menu there is an entry with "Konfigurieren Start8...". This is not perfect. It should be "Start8 konfigurieren..."
  • See screenshots

 

 

Screenshot 1

  

Screenshot 2 

 

If somebody find some mistakes in my german translation please let my know it (e.g. by PN)

Best regards from germany.
