We need to update our i18n strings without perform a full installation. We are working under Kony Studio 6.5. Thanks in advance.

Hi @Bwitvny Mvcivs​ ,

You mean you want to update i18n strings without opening the application in Kony Studio?

If yes,

You can update resources/i18n folder for different platforms. i.e

for ios it will be .strings files, for android it will be properties files and for windows it will be xml files.

Most these files are simple enough to edit.

But if you ever want to open this project again and edit these keys, you will also need to update

i18n.properties file under project root which is consolidated file which shows up and populates the i18n popup in Kony Studio.

Files under resources/i18n are generated using the above mentioned consolidated file when you open and close the popup.

In a nutsell, if you want to edit without Kony Studio, you need to update key value pairs in all locations.
