      Gee, Rick, how could I have missed this thread?

      Of course count me in for the Hungarian translation (I have already done such a thing for Fredo - although AFAIK he hasn't released those language variations eventually).

          I considered a translation from US English to UK English (change "o" to "ou", replace "s" with "c" in certain words, substitute "-aft" with "-aught", reverse "-er" to "-re", and rename the "Apply" button to, "I say, old chap, would you mind Windowizing that for me, what what?"), but decided that might be a bit much.

              Awh, I'd love that UK version. 😄

              Is there much to translate? I could be available to do a Norwegian localization.

                  Thanks, everyone, for the encouragement. The core is solid, and I'm making progress on some of the feature requests.

                  I have another community request - I want to have local language support (as much as possible) for Windowizer4, and could use volunteers to translate into the following languages:

                  [EDIT: text in gray indicates volunteer response]

                  Arabic
                  Bulgarian
                  Catalan
                  Chinese
                  Croatian
                  Czech
                  Danish
                  Dutch
                  Finnish
                  French
                  German
                  Greek
                  Hebrew
                  Hindi
                  Hungarian
                  Indonesian
                  Italian
                  Japanese
                  Korean
                  Latvian
                  Lithuanian
                  Norwegian
                  Polish
                  Portuguese
                  Romanian
                  Russian
                  Serbian
                  Slovak
                  Slovenian
                  Spanish
                  Swedish
                  Thai
                  Turkish
                  Ukrainian
                  Vietnamese

                  If you are willing & able to translate into one (or more) of these languages, post a reply with which language you can translate into. There is a web dialog, so knowledge of basic HTML (so you know what text prompts to edit) would be helpful. There will (eventually) be a brief help file as well.

                  Thanks, community!

                      If SketchUp supported "micro-localization", I could offer a deep-South version for the Dixie states ("Y'all Windowize that now, ya hear?"), or a New England cab driver version ("Windowize THIS, you *****!!"), or a close-to-the-49th-parallel version ("Windowize, eh?"). However, I will adamantly resist a "talk-like-a-pirate-day" version ("Aarrgh! Windowize it now, ye filthy sea dog, before I mop the deck with ye!"). Not sure about a Klingon-language version.

                      Does anyone here speak Bocce?

                          I was going to use Sketchup.get_locale to determine which webdialog file to open. SU is only localized for the versions in my list (according to Google). I suppose that someone could translate the relevant webdialog to their particular language...

                                Message received. 😄

                                Okay, here's the update:

                                1. added in the front-only option

                                2. added in the group/non-group option

                                3. added zero-width outside frame handling
                                  (with those two items, setting to front-only and non-group will create things just like Windowizer3 did, just with more capability [generally speaking]).
                                  My short-list for things remaining to do:

                                4. Add "Edit" capability, like in W3

                                5. Add "Inherit properties" capability, like in W3

                                6. Add "Delete" capability, like in W3 (this may be difficult, since W4 will cut openings in "walls" now)

                                7. Handle zero-width mullions for butt-glazing

                                8. Investigate using components
                                  If there's anything on the list you don't care about, I could put it off 'til the first update. If there's capabilities you want to see, let me know - I'll see what I can do.

                                            It's designed for storefront or curtainwall types of windows like Kawneer and so on. That said, it has been used for all kinds of things I did not expect (and which I have tried to maintain as best I could).
