Hello,

I'm using telerik xamarin scheduler and I would like to translate the day and months showed up in the scheduler to my language.

Maybe I didn't understand that right but I followed this link and the localization didn't work for me:

https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/xamarin/localization-and-globalization#localization-using-custom-localization-manager

 

what I did is :

1. I created 'CustomTelerikLocalizationManager' class and translated the day and months names to my language,like following :

public override string GetString(string key)
        {
            if (key == "January")
            {
                return "ינואר";
            }

            if (key == "February")
            {
                return "פברואר";
            }

            if (key == "March")
            {
                return "מרץ";
            }

            if (key == "April")
            {
                return "אפריל";
            }

            if (key == "May")
            {
                return "מאי";
            }

            if (key == "June")
            {
                return "יוני";
            }

            if (key == "July")
            {
                return "יולי";
            }

            if (key == "August")
            {
                return "אוגוסט";
            }

            if (key == "September")
            {
                return "ספטמבר";
            }

            if (key == "FilterUISectionText")
            {
                return "filtre par";
            }

            if (key == "Contains")
            {
                return "contient";
            }

            return base.GetString(key);
        }

 

 

2.I added    

TelerikLocalizationManager.Manager = new Classes.CustomTelerikLocalizationManager();

to my app.xaml.cs file 

before

InitializeComponent();

 

that didn't work so I did the same to the file that contains the scheduler and that didn't work either.

 

Thanks :).

Hi Itai,

The localization refers to some some strings used inside the Calendar such as the text of the Add and Delete appointment buttons.   Numbers and date/times formats depend on the target device culture (that's the globalization feature actually).

We do not have resources with the months names as they are set according to the culture of the target device. In this case would you like to change explicitly the Culture of the Calendar ( you could take a look at this thread for more details)? 

I look forward to your reply.
