changing the run-time menu programatically

[Reddy]

Hi All

I am developing an application which will be a bilingual. when i click french button on GUI, all display messages changes to french. When i click on English, all captions and messages come in Engilsh. I am using property node to change the captions of controls and graphs for different languages. and using a global variable to pass the language information between different windows(Sub VIs). Now the problem is, i have to change the Run-Time Menu also. Not getting how to do this. Can anyone help me about this. Is it possible to make this?

Thanks

Anil

Hi

In this thread http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=160439&query.id=11164#M160439 I posted a simple example, due to some kind of bug.

Basically the posted vi could help you to get your problem solved.

Hi Anil,

It looks like you are on the right track by using Property Nodes.  You can use the string input of the property node to select the appropriate message to display (language), along with a Boolean selector (ie: TRUE = English, FALSE = French (or vice-versa) ).

You could also use a Property Node for the language selection.
