Hi team,
Mendix offers great options for keeping an application multi-lingual.
Unfortunately, this does not apply for filter criteria in a Data Grid 2. When you add - for example - a date filter, you can choose filter options like "Greater than" or "Between". Those texts are not translatable. Some developers help themselves with css hacks (https://community.mendix.com/link/spaces/ui-&-front-end/exchanges/41).
I would like to encourage you to make the filter options translatable like any other texts in the UI.
Hi all,
the last news I have from Mendix support about this subject:
We are actively monitoring our On-Hold tickets.
Our R&D team has mentioned that we are planning to release an API for system text translation at the end of this quarter (note the unforeseen circumstances can impact the planning), so that translatable filter options will be compatible with the release of Studio Pro 11.12. This should also allow for translations of pagination in pluggable widgets (e.g. Data Grid 2).
Unfortunately we cannot backport API changes, so this will not be available in Mendix 9 or 10. In these versions, you can continue to use the workarounds you implemented.
Yes 🚀
Mendix should add those texts in system text category.
It's became a hurdle for developers to write custom css for every text and if application have more then 2 or 3 languanges then it's just became nightmare.
Hope mendix will fix it 🤞
