Localization Overview

If Openspace is available in different languages, you can dynamically change both Openspace and the individual gadgets within Openspace to use different languages, depending on your requirements.

You can:

  • make the whole of Openspace available in a different language. If Openspace has been configured to use different languages, you can do one of the following:
    • select a different language when you log in, see Logging into Openspace.
    • once you have logged in, select a different language for Openspace. See TIBCO Openspace Customization Guide for more information.
  • make individual gadgets within Openspace available in different languages, that are different from both Openspace and other gadgets. For example, Openspace may be configured to use French but you want to open a work item in the Work Views gadget that relates to an English speaking customer. From the Work Views gadget, you can select English (United States) from the Locale Selector drop-down list and translate the Work Views List gadget into English (United States) while the rest of Openspace remains in French. See Localizing Gadgets.
  • localize the work item attribute display names, see Localizing Work Item Attribute Display Names.
