This page is useful to connect a Beebox project with a cloud sharing system such as Dropbox, an FTP or other mechanisms. By default any file copied to the project input directory ("in") will be translated into all project languages. What if you want to give the choice of the target language? This can be done using this page:
- Create folders inside the project "in" directory, for example "\Translate into French", "\Translate into Chinese"...
- From this page, assign target language(s) to these folders.
- By placing files into the right folders, you or your client can freely choose the target language!
Assigning languages to folders
Click the Directories tab in a project's Settings page:
All folders inside the project input directory are listed together with the languages into which source files are translated.
Click Edit to customize languages per folder. In the example below we changed the target languages. If you now copy a file into "...\in\ToFrench", Beebox will pick up the file for French translation only.
Manually configuration using files
All the settings above are stored in files inside the project "in" directory. The configuration of a folder is stored in "configuration.beebox" inside the folder. For the above example, Windows file explorer shows us the content:
Note: If you do not see the file then your file explorer is not showing hidden files. Indeed, Beebox flags the configuration files as hidden.
If you want to learn how to create such files yourself (or by software), please see this chapter:
