How can one localize (or is it internationalize) the App Name that will be displayed for different languages? For example if the name of the app is a noun that is different in different languages.
How do you do this in Corona & does this work for each platform.
(is IOS land I’m talking about the name that appears on the app icon [short name] as well as the full name itself)
On iOS builds you can on the root folder, add the folder en.lproj, pt.lproj or/and fr.lproj depending which language do you want to support. In this folder you can add a file named InfoPlist.strings, and the content go like this:
CFBundleDisplayName = “Your App name in the language you want”;
This will change the display name according to the device language.
You can also insert on this folders the Default.png images to localize those to.
thanks - can you then test this using an adhoc build? would you just change the language/region on your IOS device and then see the change?
