Select Parser

Localizer asks which parser to use when it cannot choose the format of a file by itself. To change the parser of a file in the project, use Parser in the shortcut menu of the file in the Navigation pane.

Select action

  • Parse — read the file with the selected format and translate its contents. See Supported Platforms.

  • Content (copy when localizing) — keep the file as one block of data. Create Localized Files copies it to the output folder. To use another file for a language, use Binary Data > Import Translated Data. Use it for images and other files that are not parsed.

  • Skip — do not parse, copy, or localize the file.

Apply to all files

  • with the same extension — use this choice for all files with this extension;

  • with unknown extension — use this choice for all files whose format Localizer cannot determine.

The choice is stored in the File Mapping settings of the project.
