Copying a Form into another Locale

When your schema contains two or more locales, you can copy a form from one locale into another locale in the same schema (replacing the form in the target locale). Alternatively, you can use a command file or the JADE development environment to load an extracted form into another locale.

For details about locales, see "Maintaining Locales for Your Schema", in Chapter 11.

To copy a form from one locale and replace a form in another locale in the same schema

Select the Copy Form Into Locale command from the Painter File menu.

This command is enabled only when the form has been saved, it is not versioned, and there are one or more other locales in the current schema.

The Copy Form Into Locale dialog, shown in the following image, is then displayed.

The locales that are displayed are those in the Base Locale combo box on the Miscellaneous sheet of the Preferences dialog.
In the Available Target Locales list box, select the locale into which you want to copy the form that is currently displayed in the JADE Painter.
Click the OK button. Alternatively, click the Cancel button to abandon your selections.
