Hi Manuel,

Indeed, you are right. Here are the steps that you need to follow:
  1. Add folder to your project named for example "Resources".
  2. Copy and Paste the language resources that you want in it. ("Telerik.Windows.Controls.resources.dll")
  3. Set the current culture like this in MainWindow.xaml.cs :
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = new CultureInfo("de");
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = new CultureInfo("de");
For your convenience I have attached sample project that illustrate this approach. 

Please, excuse us for the inconvenience. We will update the WPF documentation.

Yoan,

thank you for your help!

Is there a way to debug it?
Your example works great, my solution doesn't!

I added the resource dll file, an VS creates to output file and puts it in the "de" folder.
I added to code "new CultureInfo("de-DE") as well, the dates and currency are now in the correct format.
Only the telerik texts are still in english.

Any ideas?

Hello Manuel, 

Please verify that you have folders with names - "en" and "de" in the directory  where your referenced  binaries are. You should then have "Telerik.Windows.Controls.resources.dll" assembly in each of them. If that not helps you, please send me demo project showing the issue.

Yoan,

thank you for the suggestion!

Yes, I have a 'de' directory in the startup project.
Even in the output directory I have a 'de' directory. (e.g.: \bin\Debug\de\\bin\Debug\de\Telerik.Windows.Controls.resources.dll)
I checked the file as well, this is the German resource file.

In my solution I have different projects. In all output directories I have this 'de' folder.

 
Any ideas?

Hi Manuel,

 I already answered your support ticket on the subject. Because this maybe be helpful for others, I will paste my answer here as well: 

Thank you for sending me a sample project. It turns out that the problem is that you are using binaries for .Net version 4.5 and resource file - "Telerik.Windows.Controls.resources.dll" with .Net version 4.0. Please try with the binaries for .Net 4.0 and tell me is that solves your problem.
