Hi Gohch!
I bought the users license for 1001bit... I received the email whit the activation key... but when I activate the license and I close and restart SU the license still appears as trial.
In the 1001bit folder is been created the file: 1001bit.key

What do I have to do to activate the licens?

Thank's a lot!

Hi Tiriki,
Sorry, didn't check on this forum past few days. Saw your email today and emailed the 1001bit.key file to you. That should solve the issue. Feel free to drop me a note if there's any issue. Thanks

Hi Gohch!
I received the email, thank's for the file
It works very well now, I find it very useful!

Hi everyone,
1001bit tools is now possible for different languages!
A new language pack function is added into version 1.1.5, which allows for automatic translation of the dialog boxes, status bar, tooltips and error messages into your local languages.

Here's how it works
In version 1.1.5, there's an additional language folder inside the 1001bit folder.

inside the language folder, there's a collection of text files (.txt) which contains the language translation.

The format of the translation is
id>>english>>translation
Just use a text editor to edit the .txt file and save it.
You may need to try saving the file in different format, for example, the Chinese version has to be saved in UTF-8 format for it to work properly on a Mac (English).

The first full translation into Chinese Simplified language has been completed and tested by purplewind of club.sketchupbar.com

Special thanks to Purplewind for his hardwork!

by the way, the 1001bit_tools.rbs file in the Plugins folder needs to be replaced with the latest. Otherwise you'll see a lot of errors!

hi guys,

I have modified the 1001bit_tools.rb to automatically look for the files in SU's Plugins/1001bit folder regardless of Windows or Mac.
if it cannot find the files, it then search for c:\1001bit.com

So, the setting up can be simplified to
Step 1: put the 1001bit folder in SU's Plugins folder
Step 2: copy the 1001bit_tools.rb file into the Plugins folder

Appreciate if you guys can test this for me:
Attached zip file contains 2 files,
1001bitmenu.rbs file
1001bit_tools.rb

Please overwrite the 1001bitmenu.rbs file (must be version 1.1.5)
remove the 1001bit_tools.rbs file , and use the 1001bit_tools.rb in your Plugins folder instead.
remove any file that indicates the path, like 1001bit_path_.....rb

In this case, the 1001bit folder must be in your Plugins folder.

Thanks and appreciate all feedbacks

@GOHCH
French translation done
See your PM system at PushPullbar
See your forum for images & questions

hi Pilou,
Thanks so much for your efforts!

Tooltip text: Seems like there is a maximum of 79 characters in the tooltip. I couldn't get it to do more, and couldn't get it to do multi lines of text.
Has anyone come across a tooltip with multi lines of text?
The Escalator title: tracked down the problem. It's that little Apostrophe (')
title>>Create Escalator>>Création d'Escalator
when Javascript sees a apostrophe('), it interprets as the beginning of another string and caused an error.
The translator defaults back to English when there's an error getting the translation.
Adding a back slash in front of it will get it to be interpreted correctly.

title>>Create Escalator>>Création d'Escalator
escalator title translated correctly with
cheers!

Thanks to Frenchy Pilou's hardwork,
the French language pack for 1001bit tools is now ready for download!
http://www.1001bit.com/language_pack/v1.1/fr/1001bit_v1.1_language_fr_pilou.zip

Some of the dialog boxes may be insufficiently sized to accomodate all the French languages. Please bear with this for another 2-3 weeks. I'll issue a version 1.1.6 update soon that addresses resizing of dialog boxes as well as installation path automatic settings.

Again, Thanks Frenchy Pilou

GOHCH, 1001bit_patch(3-May-09).zip works fine for me. WinXP SP3. Russian language translation is a work in progress at the moment at stroyka.cc

Thanks Putnik, for testing out the patch.
I'm really excited to see someone doing a Russian language pack.
I've placed a link on 1001bit.com pointing to Stroyka forum for anyone who is interested in the Russian language pack.
