Modifying the app strings

You can modify, customize, and translate nearly all of the strings that are displayed for the user.

Perform this task in the copy of the DeploymentKitApp in Xcode on your computer. See The app strings for more information.
Note: Before you modify the file containing the strings, make a backup copy of the original file so you can identify other strings you might want to customize in the future.

Procedure

  1. In the Xcode Navigator, expand the Resources folder.
  2. Select the file Localizable.strings.
    The editor view changes to edit this file.
  3. Customize the strings, following any special instructions in the comment immediately following the string.
    Note: Do not modify the keyname of the string, which is specified by the quoted string on the left of the equal (=) sign on each line.

    Leave spaces on either side of the equal sign, and put a semi-colon at the end of the line.

String Format

"[keyname]" = "[value]";
