Globalization
The globalization process combines the translation of component messages with adapting them to specific locales.
For more information on how globalization practices are implemented in Kendo UI for Angular, refer to the Kendo UI for Angular globalization overview article. For more information on the globalization aspects which are available for each component, refer to the article on globalization support.
Locale and Direction Example
The following example demonstrates how to set the locale and text direction of an Angular Chart. In this code snippet, the chart uses RTL mode and Hebrew localization.
Internationalization
The internationalization (i18n) process applies specific culture formats to a web application.
For more information, refer to:
- Kendo UI documentation on internationalization
- kendo-intl (the base Internationalization package on GitHub)
Messages
The Charts supports both built-in and custom messages.
Built-In Messages
To translate the built-in Chart messages, you can utilize the Angular i18n framework. For more information on how to achieve this, refer to the article on Localization.
Custom Messages
You can also override individual messages for each Chart instance by utilizing the attribute bindings. To use them, you do not have to set up the application for i18n. For a full list of the available Chart messages, refer to the ChartCustomMessagesComponent API.
In i18n applications, message attributes take precedence over localized text from translation files.
The following example demonstrates how to customize the built-in messages of the Chart.
Right-to-Left Support
The following example demonstrates how to utilize the RTL support for the Angular Chart.
