File Role

This displays the three usage types:

  • Translatable - these are files that can be translated and converted, if they not already been converted, to *.sdlxliff files for translation.
  • Localizable - these are files that need to be translated, but which cannot be converted to *.sdlxliff format. For example, graphics files that are marked as Reference may contain text that needs to be localized. You can change the usage of such files to Localizable to flag this.
  • Reference - these are files that provide resources to help translators with the translation of project files but are not to be translated themselves.
