As a relatively fresh user of the Thinkwise Platform I am confused by the fact that the terminology ‘Open Documents’ is used as header for something I would describe as 'Open tabs/screens/views/menu-items'. Open Documents to me has to do with files I have open, not some screen within an Enterprise application.
Do you believe it's a good idea to change this?
Alternatively: is it customizable in our own instance?
Hi Arie,
You can modify the translation of the Open Documents label by changing the translation of the GUI Object open_documents.
This will have the desired effect:
The tricky thing to keep in mind is that the translation for this translation object is supplied via the GUI_TRANSL base project. However, changing the base project is not advisable, as a platform upgrade will undo this change by replacing the the base project.
To ensure the translation is changed permanently, you can use dynamic model to override the translation by replacing it on every generation with the desired translation.
FYI: for now we added the dynamic model workaround as suggested by
In one of the past Platform releases a new Task ‘Unlink generated object’ has been added to the SF. This is a supported way to unlink an Object from it’s Base project and ensures changes won’t be overridden with the next Generation.
This for instance allows to change default translations to something that’s more to anyone’s liking. See Docs: Generic features | Thinkwise Documentation
With this solution we consider this Idea Completed.
