Context menu labels translation

[ArkiTonio]

Hi, Hopki and everyone!
I found that the labels in the context menu ("Rectilinear Projection", "Stereographic Projection", "Fisheye Projection", "Exit/Enter Fullscreen") always remain in English, even if I'm using Pano2VR in Italian.
So I found that I can easily translate them in the file "pano2vr_player.js", once generated, to make them appear in the correct language (Italian for me: "Proiez. gnomonica", "Proiez. stereografica", "Proiez. occhio di pesce", "Visualizza in finestra/a schermo intero").
The problem is that I must do this each time I regenerate the pano (since the file "pano2vr_player.js" is recreated each time).
So is it possible to translate those labels in a template only once and forever???...
In which file or program registry/setting are they stored???...
Thank you.

No one here has the answer?...

Hi,

Sorry but no idea. I had a look in the skin.js file but I couldn't see the reference to them in there?

Hi, Tony (another Tony here).
No, the place to find those strings seems to be elsewhere... the template or something like that, I mean...
The product of every regeneration of the pano is the file "pano2vr_player.js", where they can be found and modified but... that every time a pano is recreated...
So, where's the source?...

Hi Tony's
The text is in the player.
Of course, after you create the output the player would be replaced.
What I would suggest is edit a player and keep it safe/rename it.
After your final output then swop out the player and test.
There is a report for this as a feature request, I have added a bump to the issue.

Thank you, Hopki.

This is addressed in the next major upgrade.

Hopki, although I just do this (modifying the file "pano2vr_player.js" after each regeneration of the pano), how can I edit a Garden Gnome Package...?

Hi Antonio,

This is what I do..

1. Rename the .ggpkg file to .zip
2. Open in a zip application I use WinZip (Mac)
3. Right-click on the file you want to edit and choose a program, I use BBEdit
4. Save the file
5. Close the zip (let it update)
6. Rename the .zip file to .ggpkg

Thank you, Tony!
I had no idea the GGPKG format was a simple ZIP...

Hi Guys,
The alternative way which may be quicker is under the HTML tab, select Edit Template and select files for external embedding.
Then create an HTML5 output.
Open the output folder select all the files and zip them up.
Then rename the zip to ggpkg.
This saves having to create the package, then unzipping it then make the package again.

Uhm... Hopki... I'm not sure to understand...
Those files and folders (index.html, pano.xml, skin.js, pano2vr_player.js and the tiles folder and the menu folder) are always generated as HTML5 output, with no need to select "Create files for external embedding" in Edit HTML Template...

Guys, I've found this method, which seems to me the easiest to use:
1) edit the file "pano2vr_player.js", only once, and keep it safe and ready for every future pano/package
2) generate the pano/package
3a) for the pano, drag the customized "pano2vr_player.js" into the pano folder (to replace the one just created)
3b) for the package, open it with an archive manager (WinZip, WinRAR etc.), with no need to rename it, drag the customized "pano2vr_player.js" into the archive (to replace the one just created) and close it
That's all.
Of course we're waiting for an option to customize that player inside the program, as a template.
