String list

The list of resources in the tree view on the left can be sorted alphabetically. Set the Sort resources option to Sort by ID to sort the list of resources according to their IDs. If the resources contain info texts, you can also choose Sort by info text. If you choose Original order the resources will be displayed without sorting according to the original order of elements in the source file.

Entries in string lists can contain ID values and ID names. You can choose Display ID names if available if you want to display ID names in string lists. If there are no ID names available for the string lists, the ID values are displayed. With Display ID values you can specify that only ID values will be displayed in the string lists even if ID names are available. You can also choose the option Display both to display both the ID values and the ID names.

With Show state you can determine how status information such as "new" or "translated" is to be displayed in the string lists. By default, the symbol and status text is displayed. You can choose Symbols only if you are familiar with the meaning of the symbols and you want to save some screen space. You can also display symbols in different columns - each status is then displayed in a separate place.

The Display empty strings option determines whether empty strings are to be displayed in the translation list. Please note that empty strings are always displayed in source string lists.

If Dynamic row height is activated, the row height in the string lists is adapted to the length of the displayed stings. The strings are then displayed in multiple lines so that the complete string is visible whenever possible. If this option is not activated, each row is displayed in a single line, which means the string may be truncated.

If the Synchronize resource tree selection option is activated, selecting a string in the string list automatically highlights the corresponding resource in the resource tree.
