| <H3 ALIGN="CENTER">View 3. The Untranslated Tab</H3> |
| <P>The Untranslated tab view, like all tab views, looks and functions differently |
| when working with the resource bundle as a whole than when working with |
| an individual resource file. For an overview of this difference see <A HREF="view1.html">View |
| 1</A>. The Untranslated tab view is most often used when working with |
| individual resource files, and is probably the largest convenience that |
| RB Manager offers over other methods of working with resource bundles.</P> |
| <P><B>Working with a Resource Bundle</B></P> |
| <P>The screen shot below shows RB Manager and a view of untranslated items |
| for the entire resource bundle.</P> |
| <P><IMG SRC="../images/screenshots/view_untrans_bundle.gif" WIDTH="671" HEIGHT="543"></P> |
| <P>From this view, resource bundles can not be edited. To do this you either |
| have to go to the Groups tab view or select an individual resource file. |
| The view is useful though for getting a picture of the translation status |
| of the entire resource bundle.</P> |
| <P>In this view, each of the resource files is represented and the number |
| of untranslated items is displayed as well as the resource key for each |
| of those items. Scrolling up and down the view gives a complete look at |
| the various files.</P> |
| <P><B>Working with a Resource File</B></P> |
| <P>The next screen shot shows the Untranslated tab view when working with |
| an individual resource file. This is the view translators will probably |
| use the most.</P> |
| <P><IMG SRC="../images/screenshots/view_untrans_file.gif" WIDTH="671" HEIGHT="543"></P> |
| <P>Listed in the table is each of the resource currently marked as untranslated |
| (for more on the meta data associated with each resource, see the <A HREF="../tutorial/index.html">Tutorial</A>). |
| The table shows the resource key and group of the resource, which can |
| not be edited from a resource file view, and the translation of the resource, |
| which can be edited here.</P> |
| <P>To translate a resource, simply double click the row containing the resource. |
| A dialog box will pop up allowing the resource file specific elements |
| of the resource to be edited. That dialog box is shown here. Its use can |
| be found in the Tutorial.</P> |
| <P><IMG SRC="../images/screenshots/view_untrans_dialog0.gif" WIDTH="513" HEIGHT="269"></P> |
| <P>In some cases, you may want to leave the translation as it stands. This |
| is common for instance when working with variants of a language with little |
| change from the language parent (e.g. Canadian English and U.S. English |
| have relatively few differences).</P> |
| <P>There are two ways to handle this. One way is to select the resource |
| and mark it as translated. This can be done by pressing the 'Mark Resource |
| as Translated' button or double clicking the resource, checking the 'Translated' |
| check box and clicking the 'Edit' button. The other way is to remove the |
| resource from the resource file by selecting the resource and clicking |
| 'Delete Resource'.</P> |
| <P>Either way, the resource bundle should act the same when presenting translations |
| to the user. In the former case, the translation from the resource file |
| is used. In the latter case, the translation falls back to the one found |
| in an ancestor resource file.</P> |
| <P>Note that only one resource can be edited at a time in the current version |
| of RB Manager. Future versions will allow multiple selections of resources |
| in this view.</P> |
