Example of Russian version:

To receive the new language packages, just update your Elevatorarchitect plug-in. The update process should start automatically when you start Elevatorarchitect.

The update process can also be run manually via the Windows® Start menu.

 

To change the language in Elevatorarchitect, click on “menu” and choose the language you prefer.

 

Other languages

An Italian, French and Turkish version is in the pipeline and will be released this year.

As we have adapted the software structure internally, we can now release new language packages easily. We would be happy, if you could help us add additional languages by sending us a translation of the language you prefer.

If you are interested, just send an email to support@digipara.com and we will send you an Excel file including the terms to translate.

Thanks in advanced.

New Liftdesigner Region Kit - Traditional Chinese (CH TW)

Liftdesigner now also supports traditional Chinese drawing messages.

After selecting the corresponding language Id in the Drawing Language toolbar in Liftdesigner, the drawing messages will be displayed in traditional Chinese (CH TW).

The traditional Chinese region kit module will be part of the next Liftdesigner update, but can also be downloaded separately via the below link:

http://www.digipara.com\download\library\LD5_RegionKit_Chinese_Taiwan.zip

Installation instructions:

IMPORTANT: This region kit update requires at least Liftdesigner version 5.3 or a higher version.

The zip file contains one file with the extension ".ldm". This ldm-file must be copied into the "Masterpath\data\Manufacturer" directory of your Liftdesigner installation. In most cases a file with the same name already existists in this directory. Please replace the existing file, with the more recent, downloaded file.

Typically the MasterPath-directory is located at:
C:\Program Files\Digipara\LD50\MasterPath\data\Manufacturer

Afterwards, Liftdesigner must be restarted, in order to import the new region kit library information into the program.
