Right, you can do that only globally in TCC, and that effects only programs started thereafter (or the whole TDE if you logout / login). That is possible in TDE TCC the way I described. I think, we agree so far, and that's what I do. I switch language in TCC, start a program and switch language back. I've one programming running with a different language GUI. That's fine, but not convenient and rather quite fiddling for my taste. It would be nice to be able to switch the UI language for a particular single program only and, more conveniently so. So, the function is there. Question: how to access it directly? A method with one click (like the systray symbol for keyboard layouts), one command (some kcmshell or dcopserver thing, haven't tried so far) or one prepended env Variable like proposed in other mails would be much appreciated, but as of now it seems we haven't found it yet. Thanks for trying! Kind regards, Stefan PS: the point of switching language for one program is when I encounter problems or questions I want to report to MLs etc. I feel the need to denominate menus etc. in English language... --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: trinity-users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: trinity-users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Read list messages on the web archive: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to top-post: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting
