Title: German Translation Tool
Post by: vwaudiguy on May 16, 2016, 02:00:17 PM
Found this on the net a while ago. Open it and put it in a convenient place on the desktop. Highlight German text, and it translates it using an internet connection. Fast way to replace German text with English --------> Ctrl+C , Ctrl+A, Ctrl+V

Hope you guys find it useful.

I've used this with Tunerpro as well. Nothing groundbreaking here, just thought I'd share. I'm sure some of the new guys will find it useful.

I know it's an old post but so glad I found this! Thanks! Too bad I manually translated roughly half of my damos project before thinking there has gotta be a better way to do it. ::)

In addition to the tool, I wanted to share my macro that makes this tool even better. Cuts an entirely manual process down to just one click per line. Just hover over the unselected German folder/map title and click. This can all run in one sequence but you could break things up into different buttons for better control with things like the folder names that don't contain purely German strings of text. This works with the Winols v5 demo but doesn't seem to work for the older versions where double-single-clicking the text allows editing the text field, so you might need to fiddle with that for older version compatibility.

Incase the image upload dies later / for easier function readability, macro steps + delays typed out.
You might have to tweak the delays within each line if it fails to work reliably anywhere, but these values work great for me:

Code:
2x Single click, selects line and activates text editing:
Mouse1_press ► 20ms ► Mouse1_release ► 525ms ► Mouse1_press ► 20ms ► Mouse1_release ► 525ms

Select all:
Ctrl_press ► 10ms ► A_press ► 10ms ► A_release+Ctrl_release ► 50ms

Copy:
Ctrl_press ► 10ms ► C_press ► 10ms ► C_release+Ctrl_release ► 400ms (Might have to adjust this depending on how long the translation program takes to do the thing)

Paste:
Ctrl_press ► 10ms ► V_press ► 10ms ► V_release+Ctrl_release ► 50ms

Save changes:
Enter_press ► 10ms ► Enter_release

Hope it helps someone else down the road.
