Hi Anny,

Translation is an interesting topic.

If you want it now, you (or someone else) will need to recreate all of the
graphic icons that SignPuddle uses.  You can find a list online at
http://www.signbank.org/signpuddle/sgn-US/dict

Specifically, I will need:
AddDictionary.png
ClearAll.png
CopySymbol.png
DeleteSymbol.png
DictEditors.png
Export.png
FillSymbol.png
GroupList.png
Import.png
LoadSign.png
MirrorSymbol.png
PlaceOver.png
PlaceUnder.png
Previous.png
RotateCCW.png
RotateCW.png
SearchDict.png
SignBank.png
SignMail.png
SignMaker.png
SignText.png
SymbolList.png
Translate.png
Upload.png
Variation.png

Copy these images and change the text and sign.  Any langauge that sends me
these icons can be changed immediately.  The non graphic text will not be
changed yet, but this will be a start.

The other solution will take more time.  I will need a translation for the
spoken langauge and the signed language.  I will update SignPuddle to create
the icons dynamically and replace other non-graphic text.

For what it's worth,
-Stephen

Stephen

I showed the group of deaf teachers I'm working with how to use
signpuddle in order to add words to the swiss french LSF
dictionnary...... and there is just one big problem about it... almost
none of them do speak english... and get lost with english words....

Is there a way one could translate the buttons commands into french ??

If so I can send you the words in french....

Let me know if anything like this is possible !

Thanks in advance

Anny
