Configure session and fallback locales

Set the session locale to determine the language for text, format or data, and measurement system for values. The session locale at runtime is based on the user locale or the
Session UI
 object.
If there is no locale for the user or
Session UI
 object, the project uses the first locale in the
Locales
 property. Configure fallback locales in case the user-defined session locale is not configured at runtime, or translation is not available for a session locale.
  1. In
    Project view
    , select the project node.
  2. In
    Properties
    , expand
    Localization
    , and then in
    Locales
    , type one or more locales separated by commas. For example, it-IT, Fr-FR, en-US.
    TIP:
    FactoryTalk Optix Studio
     adds a column in the
    Translation Editor
     table of the
    LocalizationDictionary
     object for each new locale.
  3. In
    Translation fallback locales
    , enter additional locales, separated by commas, such as it-IT, Fr-FR, and en-US.
TIP:
At runtime,
FactoryTalk Optix
 uses the first locale in
Locales
 property that is set for the project or the locale that is set for the current user. If the list of locales contains an unsupported locale or a translation is missing the
LocalizationDictionary
, the project uses the first fallback locale.
