Translation of buttons created with the Command Bar designer for model-driven apps

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 26

Hi,

I've recently discovered that custom buttons on the command bar can be created with the Command Bar designer for model-driven apps.

However, I'm struggling to find out how translations of the button labels can be done.

According to the Microsoft documentation, the buttons labels should be included in the XML file when you export the solution translations, but this is not the case.  Perhaps I'm not adding the right components to my solution...

I've tried including the app in my solution.  And I've also tried to include the entity (and all it's components and metadata) for which I updated the main form ribbon.

Does anyone have any tips/tricks for me on how to translate button labels created with the Command Bar Designer?

Thanks!

    Hello, thanks for reaching out.

    Have you tried exporting the translations for the default solution rather than your solution? This may list the labels.

    Hello Tom, thank you for your reply.

    Unfortunately I'm not able to export the translations of the default solution in the new interface due to a time-out.  (I suppose this is because of the size of the solution)

    Hello Tom, I tried exporting the default solution in the classic interface and was indeed able to find the labels in the exported file.  Thanks a lot for your support!

    I ended up changing my language in Personlization Settings to the language I needed translations for, in my case Francais.
    I then opened Make.powerapps.com for the App in question and located my buttons.
    I simply entered the FR translation of the button.
     
    Now, 
    FR - 

    and 
    EN- 
    Because I could not locate the button translations (appaction) in the solution translation export.
